If you, your staff, or volunteers need a refresher about the basics of core benefits for low-income Medicare beneficiaries, our refreshed Benefits 101 slides are here to help. Each slide deck reviews:
- How the benefit is administered
- Eligibility criteria for 2023
- How to help clients apply for the program
- Where to get additional information
These PowerPoint slide decks are updated annually following release of Federal Poverty Guidelines (usually by February each year).
As with all of the Center for Economic Well-Being content, you are welcome to download these slides and tailor them for your use in your community and when training your counselors.
