Since 2009, Karen Vachon, licensed health insurance agent, in southern Maine has Been helping people who are perplexed, bewildered, dazed, and confused about Medicare. She is bracing for the upcoming Medicare season. The Inflation Reduction Act, coupled with announced big price increases for Medicare Supplement plans, will be delivering negative news to 90% of Medicare beneficiaries this September, when people receive their plan carrier Annual Notice of Change (ANOC’s) in their mailbox. “This is not the year to ignore your ANOC”, says Karen, “it may be dry reading, but it is very important”.  Karen will be speaking to communities around Southern Maine in September and early October. Her informational sessions are informal, allowing people to learn and ask questions. “Changes in Medicare are always concerning, but learning and preparing will make the changes easier.” Her sessions are informational only. Medicare beneficiaries will not be marketed to. No registration or RSVP is necessary. Karen will provide information, tips, and resources to help anyone on Medicare get ready for the Annual Enrollment Period, which runs October 15 through December 7, 2024.
