Senior Health Insurance Benefits Advisors, or SHIBA, will host a Medicare review workshop in north central Idaho next week.

SHIBA’s workshop is planned 2-3 p.m. Thursday at the Orofino Senior Center, located at 930 Michigan Ave., according to a news release.

To register for the workshop, call SHIBA at 1-800-247-4422.

Medicare is in open enrollment — when people can enroll in new plans or modify existing coverage for prescription drugs or Medicare Advantage plans — until Dec. 7.

“It is important to review your Medicare plan annually,” Idaho Department of Insurance Director Dean Cameron said in the news release. “Medicare Advantage and Prescription Drug plans can change each year, including premiums, provider networks, co-pays / co-insurance, pharmacy networks, covered drugs and extra benefits. The SHIBA Medicare Review Workshop is a free opportunity for consumers to ensure their plan is the best plan for their current health needs.”

An Idaho Department of Insurance service, SHIBA offers free information about Medicare benefits and help through personal counseling and events like workshops and group presentations, according SHIBA’s website.
