Medicare Open Enrollment October 15 – December 7
Call SHINE for help over the phone
Changes to premiums, deductibles, co-pays, and drug coverage can happen every year. SHINE counselors can help review your Medicare Prescription Drug or Advantage Plan to ensure you have the best coverage for 2026. It’s extremely important to review your options EVERY year to make sure you have the plan that works best for you for next year. For the best comparison, you should have a MyMedicare.gov account. If you don’t have one already, you can go to MyMedicare.gov to easily create one, or SHINE can help you do it.
Call your Senior Center and ask for a SHINE phone appointment. At the time of your appointment, you should have ready your:
- MyMedicare.gov account Username and Password (if you have an account)
- Medicare card # and other drug/health insurance cards and benefit information
- Prescription drug list (dosage, quantity, frequency)
Call the Senior Center starting in October to book an appointment
Last year, spots filled by early November, so act quickly! Call (978) 443-3055 or email: [email protected] and ask to speak with Jill Dube, our Assist. Director/Outreach Coordinator, starting on October 1st.
