Illinois officials are announcing free, one-on-one counseling services to help educate Medicare beneficiaries and their caregivers about available insurance options. The Illinois Department of Insurance’s Senior Health Insurance Program is conducting a series of counseling sessions statewide. The sessions are aimed at helping people with the Medicare open enrollment season, which runs this year from Nov. 15 through Dec. 31. Hundreds of trained volunteers in more than 150 sites throughout the state can help state residents. They can handle questions about Medicare, Medicare supplemental insurance, Medicare Advantage Plans, Medicare claims and appeals, prescription drug coverage through Medicare and long-term care insurance.
