" Coverage to Supplement Your Medicare "

In Original Medicare—the traditional fee-for-service coveragge offered by

the federal government—you can use almost any docttor or hospital in the

country and get care when you think you need it. But, unless you have

supplemental coverage, you will have to pay a large hospital deductible,

an annual deductible for doctors' visits, and 20% of the cost of most

outpatient medical care.

Because of this, many people with Medicare have additional insurance to

supplement their Medicare coverage. Supplemental insurance can cover

out-of-pocket costs and may also cover additional services that Original

Medicare doesn’t, like emergency care while traveling abroad, care from

a home health aide, routine dental care, hearing aids and vision

care.

To educate professionals, caregivers and people with Medicare about

supplemental coverage, the Medicare Rights Center will be providing a

free educational web seminar that will explain:

• Medicare supplemental coverage and how tto get it

through:

o a Medicare

supplemental policy called a Medigap.

o a former job.

o a state assistance

program.

• Medigap policy costs

• Your rights to buy a Medigap policy •

Additional Medigap rights.

When: Thursday, June 14, 2007, 1p.m.—2::30p.m. EST

How: All you need is a computer with an Internet connection at 56K

or better and a phone (preferably with a high quality speaker). You will
