Posted on 08:34 by Unknown
It’s time for Medicare open enrollment and it is important patients familiarize themselves with Medicare open enrollment before making health coverage decisions.

Open enrollment for Medicare continues now through December 7. People who are 65 years old, or who have received Social Security disability for 24 months since the beginning of their disability are eligible for Medicare coverage.

Penn’s Abramson Cancer Center offers some tips to help patients make their decisions for Medicare coverage.
