The CHRONIC CARE Act was passed in February 2018 as part of the Bipartisan Budget Act. This law uses a variety of mechanisms to improve care quality for populations with complex needs, including people with disabilities and older adults. This webinar from the Aging and Disability Institute is intended to explain how the CHRONIC Care Act can improve care for these populations, what changes the act will cause, and how it creates the potential for further CBO integration with health plans.
Presenters include Dr. Gretchen E. Alkema, vice president of Policy and Communications for The SCAN Foundation, and Mary Kaschak, deputy director of the Aging and Disability Business Institute at the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging (n4a).
