Serving the West Bank
Gretna is the seat of Jefferson Parish government and sits just across the Mississippi River from downtown New Orleans. Together with Marrero, Harvey, Terrytown and Westwego, it's part of a close-knit West Bank community where people often prefer to handle important decisions face to face. That's exactly how we like to work.
Know your West Bank network
West Bank residents commonly use hospitals such as Ochsner Medical Center – West Bank Campus in Gretna and West Jefferson Medical Center in Marrero, plus doctors throughout the area. Not every plan includes every West Bank provider, so we check the network for each plan we compare.
Your yearly plan checkup
Plans change their costs, drug lists and networks every year. Each fall, read your Annual Notice of Change when it arrives. If you're happy, your plan renews automatically. If something changed — a higher copay, a dropped medicine, a doctor who left the network — call us and we'll review your options before the Annual Enrollment Period closes on December 7. Bring the notice with you and we'll go through it line by line.
Protect yourself from scam calls
Scammers often target older adults with calls about “new Medicare cards” or “free” medical equipment. Never give your Medicare number to someone who calls you out of the blue. If you're not sure a call is legitimate, hang up and call us. Learn more on our Medicare scam protection page.
