The group discussed upcoming initiatives such as the recent legislation establishing the Long-term Care Partnership pro- gram. “It’s not easy to take a confusing program like Medicare and other related products and turn it into something that is manageable and understood by your clients, and that’s what we ask you to do,” said Insurance Commissioner Wayne Goodwin during his remarks to SHIIP coordinators. In 2009, SHIIP coordinating sites across the state counseled nearly 87,000 Medicare recipients, family members and caregivers during the course of 94,513 volunteer hours. The program also enrolled 4,963 North Carolinians in Medicare’s Extra Help program that offers premium and prescription assis- tance for Medicare’s prescription drug program. “The conference provides us the information and instructions we need to better serve the Medicare recipients in Cleveland County,” said Monty Thornburg and Carol Dixon, Cleveland County SHIIP coor- dinators for the Kings Mountain area. “Through the SHIIP program, we’ve been able to counsel 314 Medicare recipients and hold 30 outreach events in our community this year. If you have questions about Medicare, call the Patrick Senior Center SHIIP office for an appointment.” SHIIP is a division of the North Carolina Department of Insurance that offers free, objective informa- tion about Medicare, Medicare prescription drug coverage, Medicare Advantage, long-term care insur- ance and other health insurance information. SHIIP’s trained volunteers provide one-on-one counseling in all 100 counties.
