1-800-MEDIGAP is known as the leading toll free number for Medicare supplement insurance information. Their studies report that close to one-third of their callers are care givers calling to get information about Medigap plans, most of them adult children caring for an aging parent.
Jeff Cline, founder of 1-800-MEDIGAP states, "Many of the calls received at 1-800-MEDIGAP are customers who are looking for answers way beyond medicare supplemental insurance, and now with our relationship with ParentingUpward.org we have a helpful resource to give them."
What eldercare will consist of for each family varies, and the pressing question is, "Is parenting upward something the children of the baby boomer generation ready to take on?" With the help of the Parenting Upward organization the answer is a resounding yes! A successful caregiving relationship will require much time, patience, and energy from caregivers, but it doesn’t have to be a painful endeavor. However, it does require proper preparation and a great support system to be successful in caring for a love one. ParentingUpward.org provides these valuable resources and more.
The ParentingUpward Guide includes topics like:
-Caregiving
-Money Management
-Funding Healthcare
-Medicare and Medigap Coverage

On the newly revised site there are bi-weekly post about topics that matter to both aging adults and their caregivers.

"We provided the amazing people at Parenting Upward our top 10 non-insurance related questions, from our thousands of calls, and they delivered a guide that is both helpful and engaging to our audience. We believe in it so much, that we will be sending it to every caregiver who calls our hotline," Scott Seward, 1-800-MEDIGAP.
