Senior Advisor Warren Coble to talk about Medicare Part D at library

ASHEBORO – Join local Senior Advisor Warren Coble for "Understanding Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Coverage," 2:30 p.m. Friday, September 12, at the Asheboro Public Library.

Coble will explain options available to local seniors. Topics to be covered will include basic eligibility, how the plans work, choosing the best plan, extra help, and more.

Annual Open Enrollment for Medicare Part D begins on October 15.  Centers for Medicare/Medicaid Services (CMS) and Seniors Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) recommend that every individual eligible for Part D review their options during the upcoming open enrollment period.  Formularies, premiums, deductibles, and co-pays can all change each year, and participants need to understand how those changes affect their coverage.

The program, sponsored by the Friends of the library, is free and the public is invited. The library is located at 201 Worth Street in Asheboro.
