Brattleboro Citizens’ Breakfast Invite: Oct 24 – “Medicare Facts & Medicare Fraud”

The next “Brattleboro Citizens’ Breakfast” is planned for Friday, October 24,  2014 at the Gibson Aiken Center, downstairs, hosted by Senior Meals. Doors open at 7:30am.

This month’s presentation will be given by Kelly McElheny, Southern VT Volunteer and Outreach Coordinator, Community of Vermont Elders – SMP Program.

The Vermont Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) program is a federally-funded volunteer and education program designed to help protect Medicare beneficiaries from becoming the victim of healthcare fraud, error or abuse. The SMP message “Protect. Detect. Report.”, is delivered through the support of volunteers throughout Vermont. This program is helpful to those just turning 65, already on Medicare or caregivers and families.

Come learn about identity, consumer, and healthcare fraud and how to protect yourself and your loved ones.  In addition, updates and changes for Medicare will be addressed.  It’s Open Enrollment Season, so come learn what you need to know this year when choosing a Part D or Advantage Plan.  For more information visit www.vermontelders.org or call 802-440-1528.
