State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP)
Your state's SHIP gives one-on-one help with Medicare. A counselor can help you choose a plan, review your coverage, understand costs and apply for Extra Help.
Good to know
Medicare.gov describes SHIP counseling as free. The site has a list of states, and you pick yours to find your local office and its phone number.
