Demystifying Medicare & Healthcare Coverage for Seniors

Demystifying Medicare is perfect for anyone trying to navigate our complicated healthcare system for older adults. The workshop is for people who already have Medicare, as well as those soon to be 65, planning their retirement, or assisting relatives and friends with their medical decisions.

Topics include original Medicare, Medicare Advantage Plans, prescription drug plans (Part D), Medigaps (supplemental plans), and cost-saving programs like EPIC that can help seniors with limited resources.

Come and get a handle on this thorny subject in a user-friendly atmosphere. Plan on 3 hours to include some lighthearted interactivity and questions. Pre-registration requested at (914) 875-9004 or on the library's Events calendar.
