Thrive Alliance offering insurance sessions

Thrive Alliance counselors are offering one-on-one SHIP counseling sessions from 8 to 11:30 a.m. Oct. 23 in the Mill Race Center conference room, 900 Lindsey St.

The State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) provides local, in-depth, and objective insurance counseling and assistance to Medicare-eligible individuals, their families, and caregivers.

Counselors provide guidance based on participants’ unique situations and help them with understanding choices, how to enroll, comparing plans, coverage and costs, prescription coverage options, paying for Medicare, open enrollment (Oct. 15 – Dec. 7) and more.

Because these are one-on-one sessions, registration is required. Call 812-372-6918 to register.
