Savvy and 65: Supporting Women Through the Medicare Transition

March 12, 2026 | 8-9pm ET 
Presented by HealthyWomen and the Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR)

The process of enrolling in Medicare can feel overwhelming and confusing. Many people are unaware of how to choose a plan, navigate their coverage options, and know what items, services, and benefits are covered by their plan. During this webinar, HealthyWomen and the Society for Women’s Health Research (SWHR) will review their new resource made especially for women, “Savvy and 65: A Woman’s Guide to Understanding Medicare.”

We will discuss how this guide can empower women in their healthcare journeys and help them take control over their bone and heart health as they age.
