This quiz was created using generative AI. It was reviewed by editors before publication.

Question 1 of 8

More than 500,000 Medicare beneficiaries who are overweight have signed up to receive monthly supplies of GLP-1 weight loss medications under an 18-month pilot program that launched in July, the White House says. What is the monthly copay for eligible participants in Medicare’s GLP-1 Bridge program?

The Bridge program, which runs through December 2027, offers monthly supplies of Wegovy injections and tablets, Foundayo tablets and the Zepound KwikPen for $50.

Question 2 of 8

Amazon has just launched an AI-powered scam-detection tool that allows customers to ask Alexa for Shopping whether a communication purportedly from Amazon is legitimate. Which request is a warning that someone claiming to represent Amazon is probably a scammer?

Amazon will never ask you to purchase a gift card for any service.

Question 3 of 8

This month marks the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks on New York City. How many acres make up the Lower Manhattan site commonly known as Ground Zero?

The 16-acre World Trade Center complex contained 10 million square feet of rental office space. It housed 430 businesses from 28 countries. The Twin Towers had 198 elevators and 43,600 windows.

Question 4 of 8

One of the most common safety concerns for caregivers of people who are living with dementia is that their loved one will leave without their knowledge, get confused about their location or where they are going and get lost. Roughly how many people with dementia will get lost at some point?

Roughly 6 in 10 people with dementia will wander at some point, often more than once.

Question 5 of 8

Medicare Open Enrollment is right around the corner (starting Oct. 15). Medicare Advantage plans always bundle which two parts of Medicare?

These Medicare-approved plans that private insurers offer always bundle the Part A hospital insurance and Part B doctor and outpatient benefits of original Medicare and often offer Part D prescription coverage — plus extras such as dental, hearing and vision care.

Question 6 of 8

Jamie Foxx recently went on a podcast to discuss how his daughter’s swift actions may have saved his life when he had a stroke in 2023. When stroke symptoms appear, speed matters. In the B.E.F.A.S.T. acronym for recognizing a stroke, what does the “E” stand for?

The signs someone is having a stroke are (B) balance loss, (E) eyesight changes, (F) face drooping, (A) arm weakness and (S) speech difficulty. If you see any of these symptoms, it’s (T) time to call 911.

Question 7 of 8

To ease into decluttering before selling a home, where do experts suggest starting?

To declutter methodically, experts recommend starting in a small space that doesn’t bring up a lot of feelings, such as a bathroom.

Question 8 of 8

How far in advance do health authorities generally recommend scheduling a pretravel health visit?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization recommend scheduling a pretravel health visit with your doctor four to eight weeks before your departure.

You have unanswered questions. Please go back and complete those questions to finish the quiz.
