Branson Senior Center Senior Centers Offer Friendship, Fun, and a New Direction to Healthy Living. This would guarantee a future for senior centers, even if our funding ceased.

Senior Centers Offer Friendship, Fun, and a New Direction to Healthy Living

During the early 1980s, the SeniorAge Board of Directors made a standing commitment to help senior organizations achieve local ownership of centers. To fulfill this commitment, SeniorAge began encouraging senior corporations to purchase senior center buildings, with the assurance that we would then rent or lease the build

ing from them for services. The income from our rent or lease payments has helped senior communities successfully work toward debt-free ownership of their buildings. Today, we provide services through 36 senior centers. Our Senior Centers are generally open from 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, and they are managed by an employee of SeniorAge, whose title is Senior Center Administrator. Our centers are committed to serving the full spectrum of seniors, from the healthy, active senior who wants to use a lifetime of skills and experience to make a difference in our community through volunteering, to the frail elder who requires assistance meeting the needs of daily life. Our centers serve as a place for help, hope, and new direction in life. Thank you for visiting our page. The SeniorAge page is intended for informational purposes only.

Here's this month's fraud fact:
It is that time of year again – open enrollment for Medicare prescription drug coverage and Medicare Advantage plans. Open enrollment occurs annually from October 15 to December 7.

If you are on Medicare, you have an opportunity to change your Part D Prescription Drug Plan and/or Advantage plan during this time.

In order to safely navigate through changes, the Missouri SMP wants you to be aware of the marketing guidelines for the plans. Medicare plans cannot:
• Call you if they have no prior relationship with you.
• Send emails to you if you have not agreed to receive emails from them.
• Mail or call you if you have opted out of receiving communications from them.
• Claim they come from or were sent by Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security.
• Make uninvited visits to your home – door-to-door sales.
• Leave information such as leaflets, flyers, or door hangers on your car or at your home unless you were a “no show” for an appointment.
• Talk about other insurance products, such as life insurance annuities, during a visit or meeting about prescription drug coverage or Medicare Advantage.
• Return uninvited to your home after an earlier “no show.”

To avoid becoming the target of abuse or fraud, do not give out your Medicare information to anyone calling you on the phone or emailing you. If the callers are from Medicare or your insurance company, they would already have that information.

If you have questions, call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) or Missouri SHIP at 1-800-390-3330. To learn more or report suspected Medicare fraud, call the Missouri SMP at 1-888-515-6565.

All scams are bad, but hospice scams are particularly dangerous. If you or a loved one gets signed up for hospice, this means you will no longer be able to receive curative care – so services like surgeries and some medicines may no longer be an option. This is serious. Please be sure to review your Medicare statements for hospice claims. If you find that you or your loved one is signed up for hospice and shouldn't have been, contact the SMP.
