Medicare in Kansas - Falling Behind

Download Your Medicare Programs Toolkit Now!
KHA has created a toolkit of information to help educate your hospital employees and the general public. It is important that every community member realize the importance of making an educated decision when it comes to the new Medicare plans. Below are sample documents which can be downloaded and manipulated to include information specific to your hospital or community. We hope this will assist you in extending assistance in helping seniors sort out the various plans. 

If you have additional questions once you review the information, contact Fred Lucky or Chad Austin at (785) 233-7436.
