Medicare Open Enrollment Urges 65 Plus To Sign Up Now
The Social Security Administration urges Americans over 65 who never enrolled in Part B or who dropped coverage to apply during Jan 1 to Mar 31 1969.

The district office at 1716 Avenue 4 Scottsbluff notes this may be the last chance for some to gain protection at a small cost while outlining what is covered and not covered.
