Get Ready: TRICARE Open Season, Federal Benefits Open Season Begins Nov. 11
Open season is an annual period when you can enroll in or change health plans for the next year. Now is the time to think through whether you or your family members want to make changes to your current health, dental, and vision plan coverage. Two open seasons run at the same time this fall: TRICARE Open Season and Federal Benefits Open Season. Both open seasons begin on Nov. 11 and end on Dec. 9. Enrollment choices made during this period will take effect on Jan. 1, 2020.
The WCAAA’s BRASS Information & Assistance Specialist hosted the Provider network meeting at the WCAAA with State Senator Joan Hartley as our guest. Senator Hartley received praise for her support of the nutrition legislation last legislative session. She noted that some State laws affecting seniors changed/improved last year and new proposals will likely be put forth in the fall. Attendees had an opportunity to voice concerns as well as communicate suggestions on programs, services and potential changes in laws. A delicious breakfast was prepared by “The Art of Yum’. Call the WCAAA for the Provider Network meeting schedule, 203-757-5449 EXT 168.
