A Free Class to Understand Basic Medicare

Senior Health Insurance Benefits Assistance – SHIBA – is holding Medicare classes in several locations in Linn and Benton County. The classes cover the basics of Medicare. The class is designed for anyone eligible or new to Medicare. It is a valuable class for current beneficiaries that would like a better understanding of their Medicare benefits and options for changes. Spouses and other relatives are welcome to attend the class as well.

SHIBA trained counselors:
· Provide confidential service
· Provide assistance to Medicare beneficiaries with unbiased information regarding health insurance decisions
· Provide advocacy services for consumers with claims, appeals and complaints
