Medicare assistance for UFCU members

As of April 1, 2025 Ukrainian Federal Credit Union (UFCU) has a dedicated health insurance team available to assist adults 65 years of age or older in maximizing their Medicare benefits. Medicare options can change annually, so there is no better time to have our internal expert review your Medicare benefits. This is a free service to UFCU members, and there is no further obligation.

Who qualifies for Medicare?

In most cases Medicare is for people 65 or older. You may be able to get Medicare earlier if you have a disability, End-Stage Renal Disease (permanent kidney failure requiring dialysis or a transplant), or ALS (also called Lou Gehrig’s disease).

Medicare has four parts:

• Part A (Hospital Insurance)
• Part B (Medicare Insurance)
• Part C (Medicare Advantage Plans)
• Part D (Drug Coverage)

To schedule an appointment you may reach Volodymyr Kovalyshyn directly by calling (360) 597-2098 or send him an email at vkovalyshyn@ukrainianfcu.org. We are able to provide service in English or Ukrainian, and look forward to speaking with you about your Medicare Benefits!

When you meet with Volodymyr, you will need to complete the Scope of Appointment form. This form allows us to discuss your benefit options with you.

Disclosure: UFCU is not connected with or endorsed by the U.S. government or the federal Medicare program. We do not offer every plan available in your area (currently servicing credit union members who are residents of California, New York, and Oregon and already have Medicare Parts A and B). Any information we provide is limited to those plans we do offer in your area.  Please contact Medicare.gov or 1-800-MEDICARE to get information on all your options.
