March 17, 2021 – Health & Wellness: Medicare 101 – An educational overview

The Lomita Chamber hosted an educational overview on Medicare 101 with John A. Ballard, Insurance Solutions. Both employers and individuals were encouraged to join this program.

Today, many Americans reaching age 65 do not necessarily retire from work, while some Americans have had jobs eliminated due to the Pandemic or for other reasons. What do they do about their medical coverage if they’re not at the age to qualify to receive Medicare?

Some companies are in a position to coordinate health care coverage options for Medicare-eligible employees but may not know the Medicare rules which can be challenging to assist employees.

When can an individual sign up for Medicare?
Do I have to sign up for Medicare?
With all of the advertisements on TV about Medicare, how do I know what is right for me?

The program covered Medicare 101: What are Medicare Plans, Medicare Parts, some rules, and what individuals along with employers need to know.

Ballard, Insurance Solutions – SBHIS 310.713.9560 – https://sbhis.net/jballard; John is a local, licensed, and trained insurance agent who specializes in Medicare products.

Watch the replay

November 19, 2020 – Lomita, CA

Last week, the Chamber presented the Lomita State of the City event to over 100 guests virtually. As we’re now going through another wave of challenges for our community, businesses and economy due to COVID-19, we wanted to take a moment share some of the uplifting highlights from the event and thank everyone for their participation.

The event reminded us that “Lomita is a community that continues to move forward regardless of what’s in our way,” said Mayor Jim Gazeley. As we Lift Up Lomita and keep Lomita Strong, Captain Jim Powers of Lomita Sheriff’s Station shared his definition for the acronym TRUST to be “Truth, Respect, Understanding, Support, Teamwork” — another commonality that bonds us and brings the community together especially during these hard times.

As we heard from Mayor Pro Tem Mark Waronek, “Even with all of these new challenges that 2020 has thrown at us, Lomita still continues to shine as a strong, resilient and focused community, that cares for our neighbors, supports our businesses, and always looks to better days in the future.”

We thank Mayor James Gazeley, Mayor Pro Tem Mark Waronek, Captain James Powers, Unit Commander of Lomita Sheriff’s Station and Captain Chris Vazquez of LA County Fire Department, Lomita Station 6 for being a part of the event. We also thank all of our Councilmembers, Elected Officials, Sponsors and Guests for your support and participation.

And for one last quote to carry forward with us “It really is the hardest times that make Lomita shine the brightest.”
