Dual Eligible Basics

Justice in Aging will hold a webinar discussing information about and ways to support individuals who are dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid.

On average, dually eligible individuals have more chronic conditions and higher health needs than Medicare-only individuals, yet they often face barriers to accessing care because of their enrollment in two separate health insurance programs. Today, dually eligible individuals have an array of options to choose how to receive their care, and the number of options is growing. 

During this webinar, presenters will discuss dually eligible individuals, Medicare and Medicaid coverage, enrollment choices, benefits available under Medicare and Medicaid, and the challenges this population faces navigating their health needs.

Date: Thursday, December 3, from 2:00 to 3:15 p.m.
