This may be the year that you "age into Medicare" (turn 65). Decisions about your health care are complex and dependent on your individual situation. I am a Medicare counselor, trained by the Alaska Medicare Information Office and the Seattle Center for Medicare and Medicare Services, and am on staff at ASAC. You can chat with me any week day from 9 am to 5 pm to learn about websites and publications that you may want. I can help you enroll in Medicare A and B on line or pick a Part D Prescription Drug plan from the twenty some plans available in Alaska. We can also discuss the Medigap (Medicare Supplement) plans available in Alaska.
Having these conversations with a knowledgeable, unbiased source can provide you with an enhanced Medicare vocabulary and many resources to assist you in making your choices.
The Medicare Information Office at the Center is accessed from the Back Lobby. No Walk-ins please. Call 770-2027 or 770-2070 to make an appointment.
To help you stay on Medicare please use our Medicare Moving Checklist
To avoid Medicare fraud, people should not give Medicare numbers to anyone but the people in their provider's office. Medicare does not call and offer things "for free." Report fraud by calling the Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) Program at the Alaska Medicare Information Office at 800-478-6065 or report to the national Medicare call center at 1-800-MEDICARE.
