Older Americans miss out on more than $20 billion worth of benefits each year according to an article in the latest AARP newsletter. You can check to see if there are benefits you or a loved one might be eligible for.
You can go online yourself, or you can call The Information Center at (734) 282-7171 and ask for a Senior's Benefit Check Up. A specialist will go online for you while you are on the phone. To do it yourself, just go to benefitscheckup.org, which is the National Council on Aging's free comprehensive online screening site, featuring more than 2,000 public and private programs for low-income Medicare beneficiaries.
For more information about all local services available for seniors at any income level call The Information Center at (734) 282-7171.
