Even if you are happy with your current Medicare Advantage or Part D plan, you should check to see if there is another plan that offers you better health and/or drug coverage at a lower price.
Our volunteer SHIP counselors can help you review your options and pick a plan that meets your needs—all at no cost to you. They specialize in trusted, individualized and unbiased Medicare counseling.
Stop by our booth at BeaconFest 2021 on Thursday, September 9th, from 9 AM to 3 PM.

"I'd like to give 10 stars to this organization.
Everyone there is friendly and helpful.
We are new to the area and just starting with Medicare. I do not know how we would have dealt with all of the bureaucracy without their help.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg! They can help with so many facets of retirement and volunteer opportunities! I am anxious to see what all we can do with them after we settle into Grand Junction!
Every town should have a program like this!"

Grand Junction Resident
