Wednesday May 26, 11:00 A.M EDT

at www.hhs.gov/live.

 

Marilyn Tavenner, Acting Administrator and Chief Operating Officer of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and Caya Lewis, Chief of Staff for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services will discuss HHS’ education and outreach efforts and will answer YOUR questions about how the Affordable Care Act will help America’s Medicare recipients.

Send your questions to  [email protected]  and we’ll answer as many as possible during the WebChat.

We will also take questions live from Twitter using our handle @HHSGOV .

This week’s show is the ninth in the Affordable Care Act WebChat series.

Tune in each week as we continue to talk about different aspects of the new health reform bill so that you, your family and friends can stay informed.

You can find previous WebChats on healthreform.gov and browse the site to find all the latest information available from HHS on the new law, including the first benefit that several million Medicare beneficiaries will receive as a result of the passage of the new law — a one-time check for $250, if they enter the Part D donut hole and are not eligible for Medicare Extra Help. 

Thanks for participating, and stay tuned to get all of your questions answered.
