Understanding Medicare Enrollment: Presentation at Darien Library

Darien Library is offering a presentation on Medicare enrollment — what you need to know, decide and do — from 7 to 8 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 4 in the Community Room on the first floor. Here’s the library’s description of the presentation:

This information session will help you understand the three enrollment periods and how the late enrollment penalty works. We will also teach you how to choose a plan and how to decide between Medigap & drug or Medicare Advantage. We will educate you on how much to expect to pay in health care costs in retirement and how to protect yourself from the catastrophic costs of long-term care.
