all is in the air and summer has come and gone. Our Fall Foliage trip is right around the corner.

The trip will be wonderful.

The trees will be spectacular.

It is absolutely a beautiful time of the year.

The clothing drive was a great success. We made $1,715 and we had 7,795 lbs. of clothing.

We had no winners that guessed even close to the amount. We could not have achieved this success without each and every one of you. A big thank you goes out to the Leydig Center and

especially to Susan Johnson who truly was a major asset to this event. Thank you to Pat Moore for his continuing support and hard work.

Pat was truly a God send to make this event a success.

We are getting closer to paying off our AC. We need $1,165 and we will own our new air conditioner. So, if you know a wealthy millionaire send him my way.

Ooops! Did I say send him my way? I mean LCCOA’s way.

The Monster Pancake is always a fun event for young and old. This year we will have door prizes and a few

ctober is one of my favorite months! It brings cool crisp air, sweatshirts, and hot apple cider. I dream of Illinois only offering Fall favorites and the gorgeous temperatures year-round! Since we sadly have all four seasons, I try my best to take advantage of all that Fall has to offer!

Fall also brings food, family, and fun! Thanksgiving will be here before we know it.

For my family, Thanksgiving is a time to enjoy one another and spend time cooking.

My dad is an amazing cook and we always look forward to eating his meal. He passed his love of cooking on to me and my daughters enjoy helping in the kitchen as well. This year we will be spending our Thanksgiving in Texas with my sister and her family. I think “Papa”

other ghostly surprises. You don’t want to miss a haunting time.This event is on Saturday Oct. 26, 8 to 9:30 a.m. Also on Oct. 26, the 4-H Tech Change Makers will be here to help any senior during and after the breakfast. Please call 815-288-9236 to register for the 4-H Tech Change Makers.

We here at LCCOA had to say good-bye to two old friends: Ellie Thompson and Raymon Maakestad. They both gave it a good fight, but the Lord took them home to rest and to enjoy their eternal life. Ellie and Ray will be missed by all of us here at LCCOA, and of course their fellow Euchre players. The game of Euchre will not be the same without them. We do know Ellie and Ray will be giving each other a run for their money. It is comforting

to know they will have each other to play Euchre. I am sure they are recruiting other Euchre players to join in a hand or two. Even though we will miss them, they are in good hands with the Lord.

If you didn’t already know, Ellie was a real fighter. Let me tell you, her face lit up when she went into remission. She truly had the true spirit of hope, which she spread to all who knew her.

Raymon was a man of adventure. His age never stopped him; even at the age of 63 he took up sailing and received his pilot license at 67. You have to give him credit; he knew how to live life to the fullest. Journey well, old friends, until we meet again.

Until next time, LCCOA a place where you belong, a place to call home.

– Susan

might have a kitchen full of grandkids wanting to help him! I have a suspicion that he wouldn’t want it any other way.

Since we are a “foodie” family, I wish we would be able to attend the Christmas Bakeries trip. This trip includes everything I love: food, culture, and Christmas! If you also love those things, you should join us on November 22 and enjoy visiting four to six bakeries and shops along this beloved tour in Milwaukee. You’ll enjoy treats, samples, and the narration of Christmas traditions. Doesn’t this sound fun? If you’re not a “foodie” we also have the East Peoria Festival of

Lights trip coming up soon.

This trip will include dinner buffet and a tour through the beautiful light display by bus.

If you’ve never traveled with us before, I would encourage you to try one of our trips! The last trip that Judy and Tina took to Colorado had rave reviews. One traveler said it was the best trip they had been on. For more information on the above trips or to learn more about other trip offerings, please stop by the center or call the receptionist at 815622-9230. We hope to hear from you soon!

Sincerely, – Tori

OUTREACH

Outreach schedule

Annual Open Enrollment Quickly approaching, in just 2 short weeks, both the LCCOA and WCSC Outreach departments will be in full swing of this year’s Annual Open Enrollment season.During this time at Lee County Council on Aging there will be no walk-in hours available, so please be sure to call ahead for an appointment. For WCSC Outreach, walk in hours will remain on

ning your plan comparisons and for enrollment into a new plan if you so choose.

Medicare changes Previously changed was the Beneficiary and Family Centered Care Quality Improvement Organization (BFCC-QIO) through the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).Our region previously used a company known as KEPRO, which has now been replaced, as of June 8, 2019, by Livanta. If you feel you have been discharged too soon, or have an issue with your hospital stay, you can file a complaint directly to Livanta at 888-524-9900.

“CMS QIOs work with Medicare patients and other stakeholders to support better patient care, better population health, and lower health care costs through quality improvement efforts. QIOs are the largest federal program dedicated specifically to improving health care quality at the community level.” Information provided by Livanta’s direct website http://www.livanta.com/innovative_ technology_solutions.html Medicare Supplement Changes: Beginning January 2020, Medicare Supplement Plans C, F and F high deductible will no longer be offered to newly enrolled Medicare benefi-

ciaries. Anyone previously enrolled into any of these plans will remain in these plans as long as the premiums are paid on time, and those that have been eligible for Medicare prior to January 1, 2020, can also still purchase these plans. A new supplement, Plan G High Deductible, will be offered beginning in January. Please contact your local SHIP site (LCCOA/ WCSC) for a Medicare Supplement Premium Comparison Guide to learn more, or speak with your qualified Medicare Supplement Insurance Agent or Broker for direct quotes.

Starting in 2020, there will be a new guaranteed issue company within Illinois known as USAA Life Insurance Company. Blue Cross Blue Shield will also remain a guaranteed issue company. “Guaranteed Issue” means that a company will offer you coverage, regardless of your health status or history.

Medicare Advantage Some Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans may offer an “Enhancement” option.This is not likely to include our area yet, but stay tuned for further updates.

Thank you for allowing us to assist you, and we hope that you enjoy the wonderful fall season!

v a e h I E v s e n r had! o i t a c It’s One of the Best Va Immediately following my discharge from CGH for a total hip replacement, I came to Regency Garden Unit for extended skilled care. A patient in my condition is nearly 100% dependent on others for assistance in all areas of life. When I handed over my care to your staff I did so with the belief that they would take care of me and that they cared about me as a person.

The entire staff followed through in every way possible with respect to my beliefs, that they would take care of me and would do so in a manner that demonstrated they cared about me as a person. You have much to be grateful for in the staff you have. I extend my deepest gratitude to all staff at Regency Care for the part they had in my healing.

Please contact them directly to see what is needed and to get scheduled. Please bear in mind that appointments fill up quickly. We do ask that if you are unable to keep your appointment, or decide to go elsewhere while awaiting an appointment slot, to please notify us as soon as possible so that we can assist those who still need our services. Our agencies each run several hundred Part-D comparisons each year and work very diligently to get to every person that we can. We appreciate your understanding, respect, and patience.

As a reminder, this year there will be many changes made by CMS and the Medicare website. In order to best assist you, we will be asking additional information regarding your previously set up MyMedicare.gov account, if you have one. If you have not already created a MyMedicare account, we will be helping in setting up your username and password, as it will be required for properly run-
