Oct. 18, 2022, is Alaska Day. It marks the formal transfer of Alaska from the Russian Empire to the United States of America. 2022 is the 154th anniversary of this transfer that changed and impacted the history of our state. It is something we can celebrate.

We can also celebrate when we take the time to take care of ourselves. A part of this includes making sure we are current on our Medicare enrollment.

People do have questions regarding Medicare. It is a large federal health insurance program and can be complex due to the unique needs of everyone who is covered.

My name is Lee Coray-Ludden, I am a Certified Medicare Counselor serving the state via telephone. My office is in the Soldotna Senior Center, which is how the phone is answered. I serve Southeast Alaska, as well as anywhere I can be helpful statewide. I am here Monday thru Thursday, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Give me a call at 907-262-2322. It’s a small staff, just ask for me. We can find solutions to your questions together.
