Tea Party to learn about Medicare changes

Vicki Jarvis, a veteran State Farm Insurance agent with more than three decades of industry experience, will be the featured guest speaker at the upcoming Highlands Tea Party meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 6.

As the landscape of healthcare and senior coverage continues to evolve, Jarvis will bring a discussion on Medicare and long-term care. The session is designed to help local residents navigate the significant changes taking effect this year, ensuring they have the information necessary to protect their health and financial well-being.

Her presentation also will include a question-and-answer session, offering attendees a rare opportunity to have their specific concerns addressed by a professional who has served the Sebring community since opening her agency in 2004. Jarvis holds Chartered Financial Consultant and Chartered Life Underwriter designations, making her uniquely qualified to discuss the intersection of insurance and long-term financial planning.
