The Social Security Administration awarded The MedicareRightsCenter a Public Service Award last Friday for our work enrolling people in low-income programs. The award was presented at a press event at BB King to highlight new changes in the law that will make it easier for people to qualify for Extra Help, the program that helps low-income people with high drug costs. The program featured "rock and roll legend" Chubby Checker (famous for "The Twist") because the theme was the new “twists” in the law. Here is a hilarious video clip from the event. Three of my co-workers are standing to the right of Chubby (the guy in the suit and the girl in front of him and guy behind him with the scarf) The woman with the hat who gets up to do the twist toward the end is 99 years old!
