The Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey (MCBS) is a survey for people with Medicare to learn more about things like how people get their health care, the rising cost of health care, and how satisfied people are with their care.

You may be selected to participate in the MCBS. If so, you’ll get a letter explaining that someone from NORC at the University of Chicago will be in touch to set up an interview. NORC is the company that helps Medicare conduct the survey.

How we think and talk about aging matters. 💙

Research has found that those with positive self-perceptions of aging live 7.5 years longer on average than those with less positive perceptions of aging.

By challenging ageism and embracing a more positive, realistic view of aging, we can help create communities where people feel valued at every age.

Learn more about ageism and find resources from the American Society on Aging: https://asaging.org/ageism-awareness/
