30 Days of Gratitude: Senior LinkAge Line
Today I am grateful for the Minnesota Senior LinkAge Line, or the "Senior Link Line" (as my mom calls it).
When UCare raised their premiums, my mom took on the daunting task of trying to find a new insurance company. I spent an afternoon with her, along with her pink highlighter, going through what seemed like endless options. I swear, health insurance is designed to trick us somehow! But I digress. After an hour or so, I spotted the number for the Senior LinkAge Line and encouraged my mom to call them for more assistance.
My mom now has a new best friend named Steve, who helped her through this maze of information, even so much as putting a call through for her when there was no answer. The people who staff this line exhibit extraordinary patience, as they help our seniors navigate all the possibilities for services. We are lucky to have them.
