MEDICARE CAN BE CONFUSING.
WE ARE HERE TO HELP!
It is very important for everyone becoming eligible for Medicare to get accurate information about coverage and delivery options, including supplemental health insurance, Medicare health plans, and prescription drug coverage. Attention to these issues will help you avoid serious and costly problems later.
Randolph Senior Adults Association is the SHIIP Coordinating Site for Randolph County. The Seniors’ Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) is a division of the NC Department of Insurance which assists Medicare beneficiaries. SHIIP counselors offer free and unbiased information regarding Medicare health care products.
This presentation, from the NC SHIIP office in Raleigh, is designed to help you learn the basics. For more information and one-on-one assistance, contact SHIIP Coordinators:

Celebrating the Brighter Side of 50!
What is the "Brighter Side of 50?" At the Randolph Senior Adults Association, it is living life to the fullest. It is meeting new people. It is going new places. It is trying new things. It is helping others. And, sometimes, it is receiving services that help you remain independent at home.
Caring for a loved one with dementia presents numerous challenges for families and caregivers. Having dementia puts older adults at risk of wandering, increased aggression, hallucinations, and depression.
Caring.com is a website filled with valuable information for caregivers. Below is a link to a new resource that explains the most common crises that arise and offers caregivers strategies to cope with or prevent them if a situation occurs. Click here to learn more.

Golf Tournament!
The 7th Annual "Swing FORE Seniors" Golf Tournament, held on Thursday, October 10, 2024 at Pinewood Country Club, was our biggest tournament to date!

Many thanks to our Signature Sponsor, City of Asheboro! We also extend a special thank you to Pinewood Country Club, as well as much appreciation to all of our sponsors, volunteers and supporters.
As our organization’s largest fundraiser, money raised for this annual event helps to support our senior Nutrition Program in Randolph County. On behalf of the seniors we serve, we truly thank you for your support!
We'd like to give one more BIG shout out to our Event Chair Bill Croom, who put in many hours of preparation and provided FANTASTIC leadership for event!

Does Medicare Have You Confused?
WHAT are all those commercials talking about?
Medicare Open Enrollment is from
October 15th through December 7th
The Randolph Senior Adults Association has Seniors’ Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) Counselors from The NC Department of Insurance to assist you! Let an unbiased source help you figure out which of the Medicare Advantage or Medicare Part D plans available in Randolph County is right for you.
SHIIP Counselors are available in person Monday-Thursday 8:30am-4:00pm, or they can assist you by phone or email.
If we helped you last year, bring in, mail or email us your current list of medications along with dosage. If we did not help you last year, you will need to provide us with a completed Plan Finder Tool Form. You can pick one up at any of our four Randolph Senior Adults’ senior centers, one can be mailed or emailed to you, or click here for the Plan Finder Tool Form.
It is very important to check your plan during Open Enrollment!
Each year plans have changes in premiums, deductibles, copays, and extra benefits. You don’t want to find yourself stuck in a plan that doesn’t meet your needs. This simple inconvenience may save you a great deal of money and aggravation in 2025.
