Peo pie already 65 or older who do not have medical insurance may enroll through April 1, 1968; if they do not enroll by that date, they will have to wait until 1969 for another opportunity to do so. If you are the son or daughter or guardian of an elderlyparent who is a bit absent-minded or has reading difficulty, and you are not sure whether he or she is signed up for medi cal insurance, we suggest you check to see whether that elderly person gets the letter in January offering this opportunity to enroll. You may want to advise him, or help him be sure the application for this important protection is mailed back. Remember, more than 9 out of 10 people over 65 already have it!
