Aging Advocate: Nov. 20, 2014 - 'The Aging Agency Strikes Back'

Happy news! You will have the opportunity to meet me, Information and Assistance Specialist Jordan, live and in person at Aspire Home Health Care's seminar tomorrow at the Great Plains Technology Center in Lawton. (If you're not familiar with Lawton, that's here.) I'll have brochures! Maybe even... pens.

Reminder: Medicare Extravaganza!! is still ongoing!

The Times has an article about some interesting new studies regarding long-term health care insurance. I'm sure many of you already know what some of those studies say, though:  long-term health care insurance is pricy and only getting pricier, and some companies just plain aren't selling it anymore! Most people are choosing to get rid of their money and go on Medicaid instead. (Medicare, in case you didn't know, does not pay for long-term health care! Let Vonn tell you more about Medicare and its tricky little ways.)

Can't ever remember which vegetables are in season when? Interested in sourcing extra-fresh produce in Stephens County? Not sure why everyone says you should eat all that green stuff anyway? Veg Up has what you need! (Pumpkin Spice Latte Waffles. Pumpkin spiiiiiiiiiiice...)

Computer scammers have found a new way to squeeze money out of you, according to the FBI. That's not really news, of course, but what they're doing this time is tricking you into thinking that they are Apple or Microsoft employees, and talking to you on the phone. What perfidies will they think of next!


Note: I'm not endorsing or condemning Aspire Home Health Care, et cetera. I'm there for informational purposes only.
