Medicare Talk Tuesday Dec 5

Medicare Talk facilitated by John Pitarra Senior Health and Retirement Service, Madison CT

December 5 at 3PM

Senior Health and Retirement Services is offering on-site seminars to review 2024  Medicare and Medicaid changes and updates. The goal is to provide clarity which will allow you to understand your options and ensure you make the best decisions during the annual enrollment period. We can check 2024 prescription drug costs and check if your plan has any network provider changes that impact you. Differences between Original Medicare, Medicare Supplements, Medicare Advantage plans and Prescription drug plans will be covered. Update you on available state assistance programs and qualifications for all tiers of the Medicare Saving Program. As well as how recent legislation impacts Medicare prescription drug cost over the next five years.

Movie Monday: “White Christmas”

Monday, December 11th at 12:30 PM @ the Lyme Library

 

Singers Bob Wallace (Bing Crosby) and Phil Davis (Danny Kaye) join sister act Betty (Rosemary Clooney) and Judy Haynes (VeraͲEllen) to perform a Christmas show in rural Vermont. There, they run into Gen. Waverly (Dean Jagger), the boys’ commander in World War II, who, they learn, is having finan-
cial difficulties; his quaint country inn is failing. So what’s the foursome to do but plan a yuletide miracle: a funͲfilled musical extravaganza that’s sure to put Waverly and his business in the black!

Join us for this FREE showing!
