In this episode Ben Scher talks to Professor Gerald (Jerry) Cochran about his article based on a randomized multisite pilot trial investigating the impact of Patient Navigation. Jerry begins by describing Patient Navigation, explaining how it works and how it can help people stay engaged in care. The research team explored whether this approach helps pregnant people to stay in contact with treatment services.Jerry then go on to discus the next steps for his research and explains how his research findings might be scaled up to influence policy. Jerry describes how Patient Navigation could be implemented within US Medicaid programmes summarising the data that would be needed to scale up the intervention. They then reflect on the economic implications for Medicade or state insurers."That's really exiting and it's really satisfying when you're able to identify a partner like a Medicaid programme or a large pharmacy chain.... and help them integrate into their workflow into their systems something that might help patients and think 'oh wow'. You know, not only could we help patients in a single clinic but we could help people in a state or across the country"Original article: Patient Navigation for Pregnant Persons with Opioid Use Disorder: Results of a Randomized Multisite Pilot Trial by Gerald Cochran and colleagues.

MinnesotaCare is a health insurance program for those earning too much to qualify for Medicade but too little to afford insurance on the private market. For the past 27 years, it has been funded by a 2% assessment on licensed health care professionals. But that tax is set to sunset this year. Whether to renew the tax, replace it with something else, or scrap it all together is one of the hottest and wonkiest debates at the Minnesota Legislature this term.

For nearly a decade, the federal government has been trying to find ways to make medical records more accessible for Medicare and Medicaid clients. The initiative is known as Blue Button. Earlier this year, that initiative introduced a new version of Blue Button—Blue Button 2.0. It's now easier for Medicare patients to access their health care data and also to share it. To get a better idea of what this transparency could mean for health care consumers, we spoke with Allison Oelschlaeger, Chief Data Officer at the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services with the federal government, and Meg Dryer, the Vice President of Consumer Experience at Cambia.

Join Dave Nassaney, The Caregiver's Caregiver, as he interviews Elder Care Attorney, Christopher J. Berry, Esq. Certified Elder Law Attorney. Estate Planning and Elder Law is not an area for a “generalist.” Your quality of life and your life’s work is more important than that. It is important to work with a Certified Elder Law Attorney (CELA). The CELA designation is the GOLD STANDARD in estate planning and elder law. The clients that we work with value the peace of mind, that their goals are being met with the absolute latest in legal strategies to protect assets and preserve quality of life and care. These are only available when working with a Certified Elder Law Attorney. Any attorney can say they “do estate planning or elder law”, but only CELAs can say they are the top 1% of estate planning and elder law attorneys. Michigan Elder Law Attorney, Christopher J. Berry, Esq., was the second youngest attorney in the country to become a CELA. To accomplish our clients goals, we utilize a variety of legal and financial strategies to protect your assets and help ensure you receive the care you need today or in the future. Asset preservation is the name of the game. We want to protect your hard earned assets from probate, long-term care costs, and taxes. We call upon various governmental benefits to help pay the catastrophic cost of long-term care, including VA benefits and Medicade.

An entirely new wave of health care reform is coming to America with financing from Vital Healthcare Capital, a nonprofit community development financial institution (CDFI). V-Cap, as Vital Healthcare Capital is known, just made its first social impact investment, $10 million dollars, into Commonwealth Care Alliance or CCA, which serves vulnerable populations, including frail seniors and adults with disabilities. Many of the folks served by CCA are eligible for both Medicaid and Medicare but often fall between the cracks in the system if only because they lack the resources to take advantage of the healthcare available to them. CCA reports that it has also proven the ability to reduce costs by helping patients to avoid unnecessary hospital stays and to live healthier lives. Those eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid represent just 15 percent of the Medicade population, but use 40 percent of the resources. Managing their care therefore presents a huge fiscal as well as social opportunity.
Continuing care retirement communities can be a great option for many people. I can move into one community that can meet all my needs, from independent housing to assisted living to nursing home care as I need it. In Show 18 of his monthly elder law podcast, Yale Hauptman, a practicing elder law attorney, provides an overview of CCRCs, the pros and cons. So often, he sees people enter into these financial arrangements without closely examining the 40+ page contract that typically the resident must sign. The contracts often require a large upfront financial commitment. What will the CCRC agreement cover? What won’t it cover? What happens if you run out of money? What if the facility runs out of money? If you are considering a CCRC for yourself or a loved one you’ll definitely want to tune in first.

In the seventh installment of his podcast, Elder Law Today, Yale Hauptman focuses on seniors and their home. Sometimes the senior can’t stay at home any longer. Yale discusses with Dan Yanofski, the owner of Elite Realtors of New Jersey, some of the challenges he faces in helping seniors sell their homes. Dan shares his opinions on how to make a home more marketable when it is a bit outdated and the two talk about when is the best time to sell. For others, staying at home is still a viable option, but some assistance in needed. Yale sits down with Murray Goldsmith, of Spectrum Home Services, whose company, among other services, provides assistance to senior homeowners in making their home a safer place to live. Murray and Yale go from room to room as Murray explains how, in some cases, relatively small modifications can make it easier and safer for a senior to navigate through his/her home and help minimize the risk of a life changing accident. Yale also takes time to answer listener emails on such topics as whether a power of attorney can be too old, the advantages and disadvantages of making a child a co-owner on a parent’s bank account and whether Medicaid or the nursing home can take your home away from you.

In the fifth installment of his podcast, Elder Law Today, Yale Hauptman, takes Elder Law Today on the road to a Caregiving Symposium he spoke at recently. Yale interviews a geriatric care manager, a contractor who makes modifies homes for the elderly and other vendors who attended the symposium about the variety of services they provide to the elderly. In the second segment Yale discusses in greater depth the Veterans Administration Aid and Attendance program, which provides wartime veterans and their spouses who qualify, as much as $1800 per month of additional income which can help pay for home based care and assisted living care. Learn the details of this little known program and why so many people have been incorrectly told by the VA that they don’t or can’t qualify. Yale talks about terms such as income for Veteran Administration purposes and unreimbursed medical expenses and why they don’t mean what you might think. Listen to Yale explain the income and asset levels that must be met and how they differ from those of Medicaid. Yale cautions that in taking the steps necessary to obtain the VA benefit you must be careful not to leave yourself ineligible for other government benefit programs such as Medicaid that might be needed further down the road of what Yale refers to as the elder care journey. Yale explains how it is possible to preserve eligibility for both programs. This is definitely a program you won’t want to miss.
