SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 2016 SHIBA to offer Medicare enrollment information Are you ready for Medicare’s next window for open enrollment? Every year from Oct. 15 through Dec. 7, people with Medicare have the opportu- nity to change their health and drug plans. Companies that offer Medicare programs make changes in rates, co-pays, deductibles, drug lists and provisions each year. Consumers should receive information about the 2017 plans by Oct. 1, in time to review them before open enrollment ends. Local SHIBA (Senior Health Insurance Benefits Assistance) counselors are gearing up for appointments to be held most Fridays dur- ing Open Enrollment in the computer lab at the Florence campus of Lane Community College. SHIBA counselors meet with individuals to personal- ly assist with Medicare choices, problems, enroll- ments and questions. As trained volunteers serving under the direction of the Center for Medicare Services, they offer free, unbiased advice and servic- es. To schedule an appoint- ment, call 800-722-4134. at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church will pray for you.
