ASCOG Aging Advocate November 27, 2012


Happy Tuesday!  How's everybody?

On this date in 1934, Lester Joseph Gillis, was shot and killed by the FBI.  By what name was he better known?




The late Larry Hagman, who played Major Nelson and J.R. Ewing, left us some real life lessons on how to manage our retirement savings.

Hospitals are now receiving Medicare penalties for readmissions.  Currently nearly one in five Medicare patients are readmitted to the hospital within one month of discharge.

With the so-called "Fiscal Cliff" looming, raising the Medicare eligibility age is still on the table.

 A new survey shows that 75 percent of family caregivers have annual incomes below $25,000.

Seniors can save hundreds of dollars by carefully reviewing their Medicare plans.  Open enrollment expires December 7.  If you live in the ASCOG service area, please call Heather at 1.800.658.1466 for information and assistance on reviewing your Medicare plan.
