Summary

A Webinar on Challenges with Addressing Medicare Beneficiaries’ Whole-Person Health Needs

Description

There is an increasing recognition about the importance of care that supports all aspects of our health, including mental health and social needs. While Medicare provides reliable coverage of healthcare services to nearly 2.3 million Illinoisans, Medicare has limitations in terms of covered services and reimbursement policies that create serious implications for Medicare beneficiaries being able to access whole-person care that promotes health and wellbeing for diverse populations. This webinar will review these limitations, highlight implications on access, and review opportunities for improvement and advocacy.
