Program Description

Medicare Basics

Are you turning 65, and eligible for Medicare? Do you feel overwhelmed by all the information "bombarding" you? Learn about Medicare - and all its parts. Whether you are retiring soon, already retired or continuing to work, you’ll get valuable information including how and when to enroll, potential penalties for late enrollment, Medicare’s costs, benefits and options. 

SHIIP, the Seniors’ Health Insurance Information Program, is a division of the North Carolina Department of Insurance that offers free, objective information about all aspects of Medicare. Offered in partnership with Orange County Department on Aging.
