Get Started

Original Medicare VS Medicare Advantage Plans   


Medicare commercials, phone calls and mailings are causing some confusion among Medicare beneficiaries. There are several things to consider when deciding between Original Medicare and a Medicare Advantage Plan for your health coverage. 

Senior Health Insurance Counseling for Kansas (SHICK) is a free program offering Kansans an opportunity to talk with trained, community volunteers and get answers to questions about Medicare and other insurance issues. SHICK provides you with many resources that will help you with your questions about Medicare.

Our counselors receive training on Medicare, Medicare Supplement Insurance, Long-Term Care and other health insurance subjects that concern older Kansans.

Our counselors do not work for any insurance company. The goal is to educate and assist the public to make informed decisions on what's best for them.


For assistance from a SHICK counselor call our agency at (785) 628-8204.
