The Ohio Senior Health Insurance Information Program (OSHIIP) has started its virtual and on-site statewide Medicare Checkup events to help Ohioans prepare for Medicare’s Oct. 15 to Dec. 7 open enrollment period to select coverage for 2024. OSHIIP is a program of the Ohio Department of Insurance and the state’s official Medicare educational and counseling program.
During the events, participants will learn Medicare fundamentals, changes, how to compare plans, prescription drug coverage options, and ways to save money. The events are presentation-only until Oct. 15 when plan comparisons and counseling services become included in most events.
