Get Ready for Open Enrollment

Teresa Hazzard

You’ve seen the TV commercials or banners offering help with Open Enrollment for Medicare programs. There are many offers out there from private insurers that make it seemlike they’re official government channels. The thing to know is that the only government authorized and unbiased assistance you will find in DeKalb, Jackson, Limestone, Madison and Marshall counties is through TARGOG and the Alabama State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP).

At TARCOG, SHIP Resource Specialist Teresa Hazzard is available to answer questions about Open Enrollment for Medicare programs, which begins Oct. 15, and ends Dec. 7.  For more information contact teresa.hazzard@tarcog.us or 256-716-2452.
