Webinar: Medicaid Long-Term Services and
Supports
Long-term
services and supports (LTSS) are vital to millions of Americans. According
to a Department of Health & Human Services Research
Brief, of persons turning age 65 today, 52 percent will need
some form of LTSS in the future. In many cases, the necessary LTSS will be
funded through Medicaid. The financing and quality of LTSS often depend
upon Medicaid laws and policies. Despite the importance of these laws
and policies, they often are not well known among both consumers and aging
network professionals.
As
a follow-up to September’s Legal Basics: Medicaid 101 presentation, this legal basics webinar will provide an
overview of LTSS that will include both home and community-based services
and institutional care. The discussion and materials will address care
provided at home, at a day center, in an assisted living facility, or in a
nursing facility. The webinar will be useful to legal advocates, service
providers, and other members of the aging services network.
Closed
captioning will be available on this webinar. A link with access to the
captions will be shared through GoToWebinar’s chat box shortly before the
webinar start time.
