The Council on Aging of Buncombe County, in partnership with the National Council on Aging, has established a Benefits Enrollment Center for seniors living in Buncombe and surrounding counties.

The purpose of the Center is to find and enroll low-income Medicare beneficiaries into the public benefits for which they are eligible, giving them access to medical care, prescription drugs, healthy food, home heating assistance, as well as other services. 

For more information please contact Vance Goodman (vanceg@coabc.org) or call (828) 277-8288 Ext. 1314.

The Benefits Enrollment Center provides free screening and enrollment services.  A specialist will first conduct a personalized benefits screening for you, based on your specific situation and needs.  This will determine what benefit programs you are eligible to enroll in.  Then, the specialist will help you complete and submit the applications for these programs.
