This will include an explanation of Part A Hospital coverage, Part B Medical coverage, Part D Prescription Drug Plans, Medicare Supplement Plans, Medicare Advantage Plans, the various enrollment periods, how to avoid penalties and how to decide if a Supplement or Advantage plan is best for your health care needs and budget.
The instructor, John DeShaw, is a financial advisor and insurance broker with Solera Asset Managers and Insurance Agency, a local independent financial services office in Roseville, CA.
He has completed the annual certification requirement through AHIP to discuss Medicare plans and annual certification with multiple carriers of both Medicare Supplement and Medicare Advantage plans.
TECH TIME
Tuesday, September 17; 10:30-11:30 am
RSVP to the Welcome Desk, (530) 661-2001 In September we will discuss mobile phone/ tablet Apps. Do you have some favorite apps? Do you download books to read on your device? Did you know that Yolo residents can borrow with an e-Card from the Sacramento Library (and they have EVERYTHING)?
We’ll cover social media apps as well as apps for radio and TV content you can enjoy. Read news from around the world? Podcasts anyone? You’ll have an opportunity to share your favorite apps with us. As the days get shorter, in October we’ll switch gears and move indoors. We’ll talk a bit about desktop and laptop computing including Office applications.
We will demonstrate how you can mail-merge your contact list to print out mailing labels for holiday cards. AND, we will have a drawing for a (slightly used) HP1102 Laser Printer. This will all take place on October 15th.
If you have specific technology issues that you want to cover, you can leave us a message at our Old Guy email - This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
