Public Health Corner: Navigating Medicare and Medicaid for People with Disabilities


Navigating Medicare and Medicaid, 2005: Resource Guides for People with Disabilities, Their Families, and Their Advocates

The Kaiser Family Foundation new guides, prepared by Bob Williams and Henry Claypool of Advancing Independence and Jeff Crowley of the Georgetown University Health Policy Institute, provide information on the role of Medicare and Medicaid for roughly 20 million children, adults, and seniors with disabilities.

These guides offer a basic introduction to the Medicare and Medicaid programs, including answers to questions for people with disabilities such as: applying for Medicare or Medicaid coverage; Medicare's policy for covering durable medical equipment; seeking help in applying; appealing coverage decisions; and seeking coverage during employment. This information can be invaluable in helping persons with disabilities design a total wellness plan, including adequate exercise, proper nutrition, and good medical coverage.
