Julie Hilbert's Visit...

SENIOR MOMENT UPDATE


Attention Medicare & Supplemental Policy Holders – If you receive a bill for Medicare covered items from a facility or hospital please contact me or the facility before paying the bills to see if there is an insurance delay issue. Under Medicare and a traditional supplement as long as you pay your monthly premium and it is a Medicare covered service you should not receive any bills. Please contact Julie Hilbert at 929-3521 for more information.

SCAM ALERT! – With the holiday upon us you may be receiving phone calls soliciting donations and/or trying to sell you items and services you don’t need. PLEASE, please never give out personal information such as social security number, credit card numbers, or insurance information unless you are 100% sure the caller is legit. When in doubt, throw it out or hang up. Better to be safe than to be sorry!

December 31, 2010!!! Last day to make any changes to your Medicare Part D plans or changes to your Advantage Plans. People with traditional supplemental insurance do not need to make any changes and if you have Wisconsin SeniorCare for your prescription coverage you do not need a Medicare Part D plan.
