SEYMOUR, Ind. - The Schneck Foundation presents “Covered and In Control,” a free three-part educational series beginning in August, designed to help participants make informed decisions about Medicare and future care planning.

Each session offers expert guidance, practical tools, and peace of mind for participants and their loved ones. All will be held at the Schneck Professional Building, classroom 500.

Navigating Medicare (August 10 at 5 p.m.) - Enrolling in Medicare can be confusing—from the flood of mail to the maze of coverage options. This seminar is designed to cut through the noise and provide clear, unbiased information to help you understand when and how to enroll, what each part of Medicare covers, and how to evaluate your current or future plan. A complimentary meal will be served at 5 p.m.

Advance Care Planning: Preparing for the Unexpected (August 31 at 5 p.m.) - Planning can bring a sense of peace of mind. This session will help individuals and families understand the importance of advance directives, palliative care, and how to take practical steps toward documenting healthcare wishes.  A complimentary dinner will be served at 5 p.m.

What’s the Advantage: Navigating Medicare Advantage (October 26 at 5 p.m. and October 27 at 10 a.m.) - This session explains the differences between Original Medicare and Medicare Advantage, including the MyTruAdvantage plan. Learn about plan benefits, coverage details, provider networks, and how to determine what’s right for you. Speak with a licensed agent to get personalized answers to your questions.

Seating is limited, and registration is required. For more information on the Schneck Foundation's Covered and In Control and to register for any of the events in the series, visit SchneckFoundation.org, email Foundation@SchneckMed.org, or call 812-524-4244.
