PCC class explores basics of Medicare
Photos and story by James Hill
Understanding Medicare can be daunting at any age. But Portland Community College plans to make it easier for people in the non-credit class, Medicare 101. Highly trained volunteers will help students know what to look for, how to find help and how to cover costs beyond what is covered by Medicare.
The class is offered twice: 1 to 4 p.m., Saturdays, Oct. 18 and 25 at the Hillsboro Education Center, 102 S.W. Washington Street; and 1 to 4 p.m., Mondays, Nov. 10 and 17 at the Washington County Workforce Training Center, 18624 N.W. Walker Road. Cost of each is $29.
