Medicare enrollment ends March 31 unless special circumstances apply. Many seniors can access patient assistance programs sponsored by drugmakers, with billions in free or low cost meds.

Some discount cards and manufacturer plans offer 20 to 3500 percent savings, while local meal and activity listings provide Timed community events and meals through Finney County services.
