AARP Oklahoma invites Oklahomans to join a free, interactive Medicare and Social Security telephone town hall on October 22 at 10 a.m. to learn about important updates that could affect their benefits, health coverage and finances in 2027.

The town hall comes as Social Security beneficiaries prepare for a 3.6% cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) in 2027, which will add about $75 a month to the average retired worker’s Social Security benefit beginning in January.

During the event, panelists will discuss:

  • Social Security COLA: What the newly announced 3.6% increase and an average $75 more per month could mean for beneficiaries in 2027.
  • Medicare Open Enrollment: What to know during the October 15–December 7 open enrollment period, including reviewing Medicare Advantage and Part D prescription drug plans, comparing options and making changes for 2027.
  • Medicare Changes for 2027: Updates to Medicare Advantage and Part D, including plan quality ratings, prescription drug coverage and out-of-pocket costs.
  • Part D Prescription Drug Savings: Programs that may help eligible Medicare beneficiaries reduce prescription drug costs, premiums and deductibles.
  • Fraud Prevention: Practical ways to recognize and protect yourself from Medicare and Social Security scams.

Participants will also have an opportunity to ask questions and get answers from experts during the live discussion.
