**Important Information for some people on Medicare.**
Individuals with specific Medicare plans from UnitedHealthcare and Humana will be losing their Medicare Advantage plans.
Those are privatized Medicare Advantage plans thru Commercial Senior Insurance plans.
They should contact Medicare now and discuss enrolling in Original Medicare with a supplemental Insurance plan they opt for as well. They must reach Medicare Federal customer service # on their original Medicare ID card to arrange for Coverage. Many, many Advantage plans are closing in the country and those impacted must do this ASAP thru Dec 7th, must do this soon to enroll and not loose coverage.
Those on Medicare are highly encouraged to make an appointment with SHINE (MA) or SHIP (RI) coordinators. It’s a free service by an impartial trained navigator to look at what Medicare options may best meet your needs. Appointments fill up fast.
