🚨 Attn: Jasper & Newton County Residents on Medicare through Blue Cross Blue Shield! 🚨

Important Update You Can’t Afford to Miss!

You may not have heard this yet — but if you’re currently on a Blue Cross Blue Shield Medicare plan, things are changing in a big way.

Starting January 2026, Blue Cross Blue Shield will no longer offer Medicare plans to patients in Jasper & Newton counties.

That means your current coverage is going away… and you’ll need to make a new choice.

Don’t wait until it’s too late.

At Missouri Eye Institute, we’re co-hosting two in-person seminars in Joplin where we’ll lay out clear, simple options to help you feel informed, confident and in control of what’s next.

🗓️ Seminar Dates:

📍 Tuesday, November 4th at 5:00 PM

📍 Thursday, November 6th at 11:00 AM

Seminar Address: 2401 E 32nd St #1, Joplin, MO 64804

This is your opportunity to ask questions, get answers and understand your choices before the rush hits.

Spots are limited — so do yourself (and your future self) a favor:

Call (417) 510-4469 to register now for the seminar and get peace of mind knowing you’ve got a plan.
