Product Description
This training is designed to help attendees understand MassHealth and other subsidized health programs available to people under age 65 in Massachusetts. The morning program provides an overview of the eligibility requirements for MassHealth and the process for applying and enrolling in coverage. It also provides an update on new state and federal policies in 2024 and 2025 affecting MassHealth, the Massachusetts Health Connector, and Health Safety Net programs. The afternoon program provides an overview of subsidized coverage from the Health Connector in its Connector Care program and practical troubleshooting tips for resolving common eligibility and access to service problems with MassHealth and the Health Connector. This training gives outreach workers, social workers, providers, and advocates an upto-date nuts-and-bolts overview of eligibility issues, and how to assist their patients and clients in becoming enrolled and maintaining coverage.
