🐰 A Sweet Surprise from Survival Flight! 🐰

Nothing brightens a busy shift quite like an unexpected act of kindness!

Yesterday, our friends at Survival Flight stopped by to deliver cheerful Easter baskets to our ER and Nursing staff. It was a thoughtful reminder that even in the middle of patient care, someone is thinking of the team working hard behind the scenes.

Pictured: Jordan, RN with Survival Flight, presenting an Easter basket to Dr. Brian Cook.

Thank you, Survival Flight and Jordan, for taking the time to spread some Easter joy and for the incredible partnership you provide to our community every day. Your support means more than you know!

We’re so grateful for the collaboration and care between our teams- it truly makes northwest Oklahoma stronger.

Drop a 🐰 or ❤️ below to thank Survival Flight for brightening our day!

⏰ Today is the LAST DAY of Medicare Advantage Open Enrollment! ⏰

March 31st is your final opportunity this year to make changes to your Medicare Advantage plan.

During this special window, you can:

✅ Switch to a different Medicare Advantage plan, or
✅ Drop your MA plan and return to Original Medicare

This is especially important for those of us in rural Oklahoma. Many Medicare Advantage plans have limited networks that can make it harder (and more expensive) to see your trusted local doctors or get care at Share Medical Center. Original Medicare offers more flexibility with no networks and nationwide access.

If you’ve been frustrated with prior authorizations, denied claims, surprise costs, or limited provider choices, today is the day to explore your options.

✅ Free, unbiased help is available right now.

Call Oklahoma’s Senior Health Insurance Counseling Program (SHIP) at 1-800-763-2828- they can walk you through your choices with no pressure or sales pitch.

We’re also here to answer questions about how different plans may affect your care at Share Medical Center. Call us at 580-327-2800.

If you’ve already made a change or are happy with your current plan, that’s great too. Either way, we’re here for you as your local hospital.

Drop a ❤️ or comment below if you’re taking action today, or tag someone who might need this reminder.
