AMAC Foundation

New to Medicare Workshop
2017-07-18 10:00 - 11:30 (America/New_York) | AMAC, Inc Offices, 2130 Talley Road, Building 1 Suite 100, Leesburg, FL, 34748, United States
This workshop will cover the details those aging into Medicare eligibility need to know. We’ll focus on the terminology used by practitioners and Medicare administrators, the key decisions that Medicare newcomers need to make, the timing considerations that need to be understood, and a host of issues critical to navigating this senior benefit program.
Led by a seasoned professional with extensive familiarity in the insurance industry, the workshop will provide a clear perspective on the road leading to successful Medicare sign-up. The general intent is to ensure that attendees leave with an understanding of the basics of Medicare and its major components. No products will be marketed at the workshop…it is simply a service to make newcomers comfortable with the many facets of the program.
Light refreshments will be served, and time for questions will be provided, along with several helpful handouts supporting the information covered in the workshop.
Note also that, for those unable to attend the morning session, we will be hosting a repeat session at 5:30 pm the same day.
Seating is limited…deadline for registration is Friday, July 14, 2017 at 5:00 pm.
NOTE LOCATION CHANGE: This session will be held at AMAC’s Leesburg Office…call for directions (888-750-2622).

Understanding Veterans Aid & Attendance Benefits
2017-06-20 10:00 - 11:30 | Lady Lake Library Room 207, 225 W Guava Street, Lady Lake, FL, 32159, United States
This workshop will explore a little-known benefit available to U.S. Armed Forces veterans who were on active duty during a period of war. It’s titled “Pension With Aid and Attendance”, and it could be a life-changer for many men and women who require home care or care in a health care facility and require the assistance of another person (for bathing, dressing, medication monitoring and other activities of daily living).
The Pension With Aid and Attendance benefit is available to veterans and their spouse, and also to surviving spouses and to spouses of a healthy veteran in need of care. Veterans having the wartime service credits only need to demonstrate that caregiver assistance, or a living facility more suitable to their physical limitations is required, and that they have a financial need.
Kim Lanning, representing Caring Avenues, will provide education on this important benefit and will help attendees understand how to take advantage of the benefit to improve their lives.
The session will begin at 10:00 am and is scheduled to conclude by 11:30 am, although Ms. Lanning and Foundation staff representatives will be on-hand afterward to respond to questions and provide any further assistance anyone might need.
Deadline for registration is Friday, June 16, 2017. Light refreshments will be provided before and during the session.
