Orleans County OFA to host Medicare 101 Workshop

The Orleans County Office for the Aging (OFA) will be hosting a “Medicare 101 Workshop” regarding Medicare choices for seniors on Tuesday, July 23, at 10 a.m. at the Medina Senior Center, 615 West Avenue, Medina. Pre-registration is encouraged.

“When it comes to Medicare, there are many choices for seniors, there can be program changes from year to year, and, quite frankly, it can get overwhelming very quickly,” said Melissa Blanar, Orleans County Director of OFA. “Our hope is that this workshop will help people make informed decisions that are right for them.”

According to Blanar, the workshop will cover Medicare A,B,C & D; how to fill the gaps in Medicare; Medicare Prescription Drug Coverage; EPIC; Medicare Savings Program; getting extra help with prescription drug coverage and transitioning from NYS Health Exchange to Medicare. There will be ample time for questions and answers.

To register for the event or if you have any questions, call OFA at 585-589-3191.
