  1. understand what is covered under Medicare Parts A and B.

  2. help you compare Medigap insurance policies and explain the basic coverage offered under each of the standardized plans and provide a list of companies licensed to sell Medigap insurance in Oregon.

  3. help you decide whether private long-term care insurance is right for you, and help you evaluate the policies offered within this state.

  4. help you organize Medicare and supplemental claims.

  5. inform you about the rights and protections that you have under Medicare.

  6. Send you a range of information and materials concerning Medicare, supplemental insurance, and long-term health insurance issues.

  7. Assist you in understanding Medicare's appeals process and help you file appeals for decisions with which you disagree.

  8. Refer you to federal, state, and county offices whose programs can save you money in paying for health care.
