Medicare Advantage Information

You can't choose when you may be sick. But you can choose who will make you better.

If you are eligible for Medicare (eligibility requirements) we encourage you to review your options and consider a Medicare Advantage plan that gives you access to PIH Health.

PIH Health understands that Medicare is very confusing. We have many different events and presentations throughout the year to help you navigate your options.

Descriptions of various events:

• Age-In Presentations: Quarterly events for those turning 65 and new to Medicare. Health Insurance Counseling and Advocacy Program, or HICAP, will provide an educational presentation about Medicare. How it works and various options available. There will be no sales representatives nor enrolling at these events.
• Medicare Open Forums: Only happens during AEP (October and November). All the Medicare health plans contracted with PIH Health will be available to answer questions about their benefit changes for the upcoming year. Health plan representatives will be present to enroll on-site or make future appointments. To reserve your seat, call 888.365.4450.
• Medicare Presentations: During AEP and Medicare Open Enrollment Period (January to March), PIH Health contracted Medicare health plan representatives and brokers will present benefit information individually and enroll into Medicare Advantage plans. These events take place at different times at PIH Health Whittier Hospital and PIH Health Downey Medical Office Building.
