This webinar covers Medicare Program updates and resources to help those who assist people with Medicare make informed decisions about their 2020 health care coverage.

The Medicare Plan Finder on Medicare.gov helps people with Medicare compare and choose coverage options, including Medicare health and drug plans. This webinar will preview and walk through Plan Finder updates that are planned for Open Enrollment 2019.

Even if you have coverage through current employment, you may still need to make some important Medicare enrollment decisions about Part A (Hospital Insurance) and Part B (Medical Insurance). It's important to understand how your current coverage works with Medicare before making any enrollment decisions.

You'll learn when Medicare enrollment is automatic. In the past, typical ages for Medicare and Social Security benefits enrollment were the same. Now, that has changed. This is why people don't always know they may need to take an action to get Medicare, or if they can expect to be automatically enrolled. You'll help people who are eligible for enrollment know if it'll be automatic for them, and inform them about the decisions they may need to make based on their circumstances.
