Medicare 101

Medicare Teacher Nancy De Lira, a Norwood Park resident, leads this free presentation at the Kelly library branch in Englewood on Saturday, October 24, from 1:00 to 2:00 PM. The session covers the basics of Medicare Parts and Plans, compares Advantage versus Supplement options, explains Part D prescription drug coverage, and touches on how the Inflation Reduction Act affects plans starting in 2023. It’s aimed at people turning 65, current enrollees who want to better understand their choices, and adults helping senior parents navigate the system. The timing lines up with the Annual Enrollment Period, which runs October 15 through December 7. Sign language interpretation and other accessibility accommodations are available by request at least 14 business days ahead.
