The State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) is an independent Government program with trained Counselors in every State. SHIP is a State program that gets money from the Federal Government to give free local health insurance counseling to people with Medicare. SHIP Counselors are unbiased and can help you with your Medicare questions or problems. They can help you understand your Medicare plan choices and answer questions about switching plans.
The local SHIP Counselor in Morrison, IL, is Kathy Schmidt. She stated, “I am a SHIP Counselor and am willing to assist people on Medicare, to make comparisons during Open Enrollment. I will do a comparison of their current plan with the 2023 plans that are available, to find them the most cost-effective plan for the 2023 Medicare year.
“If you would like assistance with comparing your 2022 plan with a 2023 plan, please call me at 815-564-8772 and schedule an appointment. There is no cost for this assistance.”
