This October is the time to think about Open Enrollment of your health care plan, and Medicare, or Medicare Advantage. There are plenty of new selections to think about, so October is the month to do research and find that plan best for you. Open Enrollment begins October 15 and ends December 7, 2020. You can review options and compare which plan best fits your needs. If you are in need of help, you can visit a State Health Insurance Program representative, or go to Midicare.gov for help. It is the time to be your own advocate, and pick a plan best for you.
October is also a good time to think about getting the flu shot. Now more than ever, flu vaccination is a good form of prevention, and an even better way to stay safe during the current COVID-19 pandemic. Coronavirus is a very serious illness. No one to date has contracted both at the same time, but we are still in uncharted waters. So stay safe and be healthy.
