The Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) and the State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) go together like a lock and key: one helps you get the RIGHT coverage, and the other helps you STOP the wrong scams.

SHIP counselors are your free, unbiased guides to understanding Medicare, helping you choose the plan that fits your health needs and budget. SMP empowers you to protect yourself from Medicare fraud, errors, and abuse.

In many communities, SMP and SHIP are even better together because they share the same office space, and many dedicated volunteers and staff wear both hats, serving Medicare beneficiaries through both programs. Together, they’ve got you covered from enrollment to protection.

Client Success Story
Our latest success story from a Lifeline client summarized:
Shirley Bowen has relayed she is glad she has Lifeline. She lives in Linn County. Several months ago she was outside and missed a step and fell onto the sidewalk. She used her Lifeline button and called for help. Her neighbor soon came and called for the ambulance. She had a broken hip. She had successful hip surgery the next morning and had a good outcome. She hopes others will obtain this device. It really helped her. She also relayed it is reassuring to the family to know their family member is safe.
“I’m glad I have Lifeline! Here’s a HUGE THANK YOU”!!
