Geared toward seniors and other people eligible for Medicare in Orange County, the new 5,000-square-foot Orlando CarePlus Community Center, located in Conway Plaza at 4442 Curry Ford Road, includes a lobby, snack area and activity room, and will offer regular health education programs that are open to the public at no cost.

“Given the positive response we’ve received from the Winter Haven community, we’re thrilled to open this second Community Center to serve our growing Medicare Advantage membership in Orlando,” said Bruno Piquin, CarePlus Health Plans President. “In fact, in a recent survey, 85 percent of respondents said they would recommend CarePlus Health Plans to a family member or friend because of the Community Center and its offerings. One respondent even called CarePlus the highlight of their week.”

Piquin added that CarePlus Community Centers also serve residents in need by regularly hosting drives for items such as groceries, hygiene products and pet food.

Currently, licensed CarePlus sales agents are available at the new center to assist people eligible for Medicare with their Medicare Advantage or Prescription Drug plan selection during Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period. The enrollment period runs from Oct. 15 through Dec. 7 for plan coverage taking effect Jan. 1, 2023.
