Medicare is a Federal health insurance program, administered by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). While it helps with the cost of health care, Medicare does not cover all medical expenses nor does it cover the cost of most long-term care.
For more information about Medicare, visit the CMS website at http://www.cms.gov
The State Health Insurance Program is a program that helps those on Medicare with personalized Medicare counseling, education, and access to financial assistance resources. SHIP offices help Medicare beneficiaries identify and understand programs and plans such as Medicare prescription drug coverage, Medicare Advantage Plans, and Medicare supplemental insurance policies. SHIP can also help Medicare beneficiaries enroll in these plans. The services you receive through SHIP offices are confidential and free.
