Medicare information -- plus movies

UnitedHealthcare and the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African-American Arts + Culture are collaborating to offer free information sessions aimed at helping African American beneficiaries of Medicare better understand their insurance options.

Three sessions are planned through February, featuring speakers from UnitedHealthcare and the Gantt center. The next is Saturday, Dec. 17, from 6 to 10 p.m., at McCrorey YMCA, 3801 Beatties Ford Road. An hourlong “Health Moment” will explain how Medicare works. That will be followed by a holiday dinner and dancing.

Other sessions are scheduled for 6 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 14, and Sunday, Feb. 12, at the Gantt center, 551 S. Tryon St. Informational programs will be followed by the showing of classic movies featuring black actors.
