New to Medicare educational program
Blue Mountain Health System will co-sponsor a New to Medicare educational program with the Carbon County Area Agency on Aging at 1:30 p.m. April 25 in the community room at the Gnaden Huetten campus, 211 N. 12th St. in Lehighton.
The program will give an overall view of Medicare including hospital care, physician and lab work and prescription drug coverage. It is important to get a basic understanding of the program. Representatives from the Agency on Aging will provide a general introduction to Medicare, which includes Medicare Parts A, B and C; Medicare supplemental insurance (Medi-Gap policies; Medicare Advantage plans and Medicare Prescription Drug Plans — Part D).
This is an educational program to help people entering Medicare for the first time, and their caregivers, to better understand this comprehensive health care program.
