AARP Oklahoma Hosts a Medicare Telephone Town Hall: October 8

AARP Oklahoma is hosting an interactive telephone town hall focusing on the Medicare open enrollment period, which is October 15 through December 7, on October 8 at 10 a.m. During the interactive town hall, the panelists will discuss changes to Medicare in 2025 including the Medicare prescription drugs out-of-pocket spending cap that starts January 1. Attendees will also learn about Part D drug coverage options and additional assistance that may be available from Medicare’s Medicare Improvement for Patients and Providers Act (MIPPA) program. MIPPA assists eligible Medicare beneficiaries to help lower Medicare premiums and deductible costs.

The panel includes AARP Oklahoma State Director Sean Voskuhl, Divisional Director for the Medicare Assistance Program at the Oklahoma Insurance Department Ray Walker and Human Services Community Living, Aging and Protective Services Coordinate at Oklahoma Human Services Jean Kidd. The panelists will field questions from telephone town participants and respond to Facebook comments.
