The Medicare outreach and assistance resources page contains resources and tools for you as professional, to assist in your role of raising awareness and understanding of Medicare throughout Wisconsin. Documents were reorganized in August 2025. If you cannot find what you need or have something to add to our collection of outreach materials, please contact the Medicare Outreach Coordinator.

Medicare counseling for Wisconsin residents is provided by a broad network of community partners. Working together, we ensure Medicare beneficiaries can make confident, well-informed decisions about their health insurance and get help when they need it. Learn more about the network of professionals on the DHS State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) webpage.
