This year open enrollment for Medicare Part D started in October. That is a whole month early compared to the traditional November start date. If you are new to Medicare or would like to review your Medicare coverage then Senior’s Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) is a great resource for you.
SHIIP is part of the North Carolina Department of Insurance and was started in 1986 to counsel Medicare beneficiaries and caregivers about Medicare, Medicare supplements, Medicare Advantage, Medicare Part D, and long-term care insurance. SHIIP counselors offer free and unbiased information regarding Medicare health care products.
