The National Legal Resource Center presents a webinar on Health Care Reform & the Aging Population

With the enactment of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), health care reform finally became a reality. This historic legislation will impact virtually every facet of the nation’s healthcare system, including the programs and services on which low-income older individuals rely.

This webinar will present an overview of how the PPACA will affect older individuals, with a focus on the Medicaid long-term services and supports provisions, the provisions relating to long-term care facilities, and the changes that will have a particular impact on dual eligibles, such as certain changes to Medicare Part D and Medicare Advantage.

The presenters will be Eric Carlson, Gene Coffey, and Georgia Burke, all of whom are attorneys with the National Senior Citizens Law Center.

Sponsorship for this Webinar is provided by the National Consumer Law Center and the National Senior Citizens Law Center.  This webinar is in a series of National Elder Rights Training Project webinars for the National Legal Resource Center.  The Administration on Aging supports the resource center through grant funding.
