Toward Seamless Coverage: Helping Clients Transition from Medicaid Expansion to Medicare
The National Council on Aging (NCOA) is hosting a webinar to discuss findings and promising practices that can help eligible seniors maintain coverage as they switch from Medicaid expansion to Medicare. 32 states and the District of Columbia have expanded their Medicaid programs. This has extended Medicaid coverage to low-income adults aged 19-64 with incomes up to 138% of the federal poverty level, and this is called the “Adult Group”. However, this population is not permitted to have both Medicaid and Medicare.
