Do you currently reside in a Nursing Home or Assisted Living Facility?

Review some questions you and family members under 65 should consider.
These will help determine the best plan at a cost you can afford:
Who do you want to enroll (who are under 65) and what are their dates of birth?
How many times a year do you or your family visit the doctor?
Do your healthcare providers participate with carriers on the individual health insurance market? (You can call your providers and ask the billing department.)
How many ongoing monthly prescriptions do you have?
Are any other benefits such as children’s dental or chiropractic care important to you?
Are you currently receiving Medicaid benefits?
Gather the following information to share with your Benefits Counselor
Your Social Security Number (or other document ID number if you are a legal immigrant).
To determine your household income, you need to understand your current income; either a pay stub, your W-2 tax form, or your most recent tax return and other income information. This could include unemployment checks, child support, veterans’ payments, alimony, retirement income or other sources.
People in your household: the number of people who you claim as dependents, whether or not they live with you.
Current medical plan information: the type of current medical coverage you have and other medical plans you may have access to now.
Be ready on the date and time you selected for your consultation, and
Allow enough time for the consultation, approximately 60-90 minutes per person.
Make certain any family member, caregiver, or a power of attorney on the call is available for the call if desired.
Wait for your benefits counselor to call you.
Promptly reschedule the consultation if you find you cannot keep the appointment you originally scheduled by calling the toll-free number listed under the Contact Us section.
You can shorten the amount of time you spend on the consultation by providing your healthcare provider and prescription drug information prior to your consultation.
