Know your Medicare and Medicaid rights

The United States Department of Health and Human Services recently announced over $68 million in grants to help individuals with disabilities and their caregivers make more informed decisions about their health and long-term care options.
These grants, made possible by the Affordable Care Act, are going to states, territories, tribal and community-based organizations. The funds will be used to help seniors and individuals with disabilities and their caregivers make more informed decisions about their health and long-term care.
Specifically, the funds will be used to help families: understand their Medicare and Medicaid benefits; navigate options for long term care including community-based services that can help individuals remain in their homes; and assist those transitioning from nursing or rehabilitation facilities back home to put the supports in place to make that transition successful.
