Pioneers of RG&E Newsletter - 10/28/2016

A Newsletter for Retirees * Also posted at www.pioneersofrge.com Some information from Lifespan I'm hoping this isn't too late if you are interested: Since open enrollment is quickly approaching, I thought that you might want to include information in your next newsletter regarding the counseling that Lifespan provides to those receiving Medicare. Enrollees should call 244-8400 to schedule a phone or office appointment or can go online to www.lifespan-roch.org to find our comparison chart, which compares EVERY advantage plan available in our region. We also offer Medicare 101 workshops for those approaching retirement, those newly retired or those who want to review the benefits Medicare provides and all of the supplemental options available. Below are some of these workshops we currently have scheduled. The workshops are free but registration is REQUIRED. Those interested in attending can call 244-8400 to register: Medicare 101 Ron Brandwein, Lifespan Financial Specialist An easy-to-follow explanation of Medicare November 7th, 2– 4:00 pm at Brickstone by St. John's, Wintergarden, 1325 Elmwood Avenue November 10th, 2:00– 4:00 pm at The Summit at Brighton, 2000 Summit Circle Drive November 15, 9:30 – 11:30am at Episcopal SeniorLife Communities; Valley Manor; 1570 East Avenue These workshops are free but registration is required.
