OPEN ENROLLMENT

For those with Medicare Part D, each year it's extremely important to look over plans offered to you and ensure that you will be able to get the medication you need and get the best coverage possible. Even if you haven't done this in the past, we highly encourage you to take the opportunity this year, as there have been many changes to Medicare Party D for 2025 with the Inflation Reduction act of 2022.

This once-a-year enrollment time runs between October 15th and December 7th. Make sure you take advantage!
