State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) | (410) 887-2059 | Funded by the state and federal governments, the SHIP program provides seniors in Owings Mills with free and impartial counseling on all matters concerning Medicare. This includes explaining the pros and cons of each plan in relation to the senior's unique circumstances and advising on supplementary private healthcare insurance.

Complaints can be of any nature, such as restricted dietary options in meals, but serious issues, such as elder abuse allegations, will be passed on to the appropriate authorities. The ombudsman can also supply copies of assisted living inspection reports so seniors can make more informed choices. |
