West Virginia State Health Insurance Assistance Programs (SHIP)

Description:

SHIP's mission is to educate the public about Medicare and other health insurance issues and to counsel Medicare beneficiaries (whether they be seniors or persons with disabilities) and their families. SHIP counselors are located in many of the West Virginia County Senior Centers and Aging and Disability Resource Centers and provide accurate and objective counseling, assistance and advocacy relating to Medicare, Medicare+ Choice, Medicare Assistance (buy-in) programs, private health insurance (including Medigap and long-term care policies), and related health coverage plans. They also provide information regarding prescription drug assistance programs. Counseling is provided in one-on-one confidential sessions and includes specific problem solving, support for individual decision making, and referrals to appropriate agencies. Information and advice is free.
