Understanding Medicare

There are many details about Medicare that you will need to understand BEFORE you are 65 years old; up to 6+ months before your 65th birthday.  Therefore, the more you know, the better prepared you will be when required to sign up for Medicare options. 

MARS hosts two (2) “Understanding Medicare” classes  presented by Kaiser Permanente at Red Rocks Credit Union (8195 Southpark Lane, Littleton) annually.  They are held in the Spring and Fall.  When the notifications come out, please sign up for one of these informational sessions!
