    Medicare 101 for HR Professionals

    Medicare is a maze.  Our speakers will equip HR professionals to guide and support employees transitioning to Medicare and/or retirement.  This presentation will give participants a working knowledge of Medicare with a review of enrollment periods, penalties, employer size rules, COBRA, HSAs, coverage options, employer forms, and a Q&A. 

    Following this presentation, attendees will be able to:

    1. Complete Medicare enrollment forms accurately.
    2. Know when their coverage is primary or secondary to Medicare.
    3. Advise employees on when and how to enroll in Medicare.
    4. Understand the Medicare rules around HSAs and COBRA
    5. Correctly identify the parts of their coverage employees may want to retain.

    Speakers:  Leah Ludwig, Cassandra Zetts, Gloria Juliano (click for bios)
