Medicare

program 

presented

DAYVILLE — Westview Health Care Center continued its series of free informative community health education programs recently with Judith Stein, executive director of the Center for Medicare Advocacy. 

Stein was invited to the facility to deliver a lecture concerning the evolving system of Medicare. The full capacity audience consisted of local residents of northeastern Connecticut, many of whom are currently enrolled in Medicare and seeking guidance for making informed decisions concerning their coverage. With over four decades of experience working within elder law and Medicare advocacy, Stein’s understanding of the often-times confusing and technical nature of Medicare was delivered to the audience in a succinctly conversant manner. Using various real-life examples derived from her personal experience and client cases, Stein broke down the various components of Medicare services including health care providers, plans, coverage and prescriptions.
