Become a MAP Volunteer

Oklahoma’s Medicare Assistance Program volunteers are dedicated to assisting others by helping them understand the basics of Medicare, its options as well as assisting them with the enrollment processes, reporting fraudulent activities, assisting with claims etc. The number of individuals currently and soon to be qualified for Medicare benefits is on the rise; the need for additional volunteer support is ever increasing and that is why we need YOU to become a volunteer.

Why Should You Become a MAP Volunteer?

MAP provides services through many channels: seminars, local community training, one-on-one counseling, public speaking, publications, videos and more. Volunteers are the key to the program’s success.

MAP volunteers are called on to assist with questions on Medicare, Medicare supplements, employer benefit plans, managed care plans, prescription assistance programs, and more.

Counseling can include an analysis of insurance needs, side-by-side policy comparisons, help with filing claims, or filling out applications for assistance.

To be an active MAP volunteer we ask that you meet the following criteria:

  • Have a desire to help people with their Medicare questions and concerns
  • Enjoy meeting new people and helping
  • Attend regular local in-service training sessions (usually two full-day sessions per year)
  • CANNOT be affiliated with (i.e., employed by, or in a position to sell) any insurance product, agency, company or service
  • Be willing to assure complete confidentiality to every client
  • Complete the required volunteer training and testing
  • Pass a required background check

Certain conflicts between personal interests and the interests of the MAP may exist and could prevent a person from serving as a volunteer. One example is that of a licensed health insurance agent. Some conflicts of interest, however, can be addressed in other ways and may not prevent someone from serving with the program.
