Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C., will host a benefits workshop for seniors from 2 to 4 p.m. Oct. 16 at the Davie County Senior Center, 278 Meroney Street, Mocksville.

“As the open-enrollment period for Medicare approaches, this workshop will include timely information for beneficiaries and their families,” Foxx said. “Seniors in North Carolina’s 5th District should make plans to join us and learn more about opportunities to help them have a healthier and happier retirement.”

The open-enrollment period for Medicare beneficiaries will start Oct. 15 and end Dec. 7. This is the only time during the year, except in unique circumstances, when current Medicare enrollees are able to make changes to their existing coverage.

Local organizations as well as state and federal agencies will be available to answer questions and provide information on the benefits they have available for seniors.

For more information or to RSVP, contact the Clemmons District Office at (866) 677-8968.
