Senior Medicare Counseling

LTCA of Enid Area Agency on Aging (AAA), in cooperation with the Oklahoma Insurance Department Medicare Assistance Program, is again offering free Medicare Part D Prescription Plan Comparison and enrollment assistance through the Fall Open Enrollment Period – October 15,  through December 7.  We are here to help you take the guesswork out of your prescription drug coverage for 2023.

A certified counselor will provide unbiased, easy-to-understand information to help you compare Medicare Part D Plans and assist you in selecting or changing your drug coverage for 2023.

Each year Medicare Part D Plans change their premiums and what they cover, so every beneficiary is encouraged to review their coverage each year. Remember, this is the only time of the year that Part D changes can be made.

Counseling can be done in person or over the phone.  To schedule your appointment or for more information, contact Stacy Washburn, I & A Specialist at 580-234-7475.

Need Relief on Your Prescription Drug Costs?

You May Qualify for Medicare “Extra Help”!

Medicare beneficiaries with limited income and resources may qualify for “Extra Help” to pay for Medicare Part D prescription drug costs.  If you qualify, it can help reduce your drug costs, including monthly premiums, annual deductibles, and prescription co-payments.  Many people qualify and don’t even know it.

To qualify for Extra Help, income must be less than $14,390 a year (or $28,720 for married couples).  Your resources must also be limited to $13,820 (or $27,600 for married couples).  Your home, the land it stands on, your cars, burial plots, or personal possessions do not count toward the resource limit.

LTCA of Enid Area Agency on Aging can help you apply for this benefit.  It’s easy and free to apply for and can be completed over the phone with a LTCA of Enid AAA staff person.  CALL 580-234-7475
