Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services

Description

This Funding Opportunity will provide financial assistance to SHIPs and/or ADRCs to provide options counseling to Medicare-Medicaid individuals (dual eligibles) to ensure that these individuals have access to an unbiased and consumer friendly source of information and counseling distinct from the Demonstration Plans (See section 1.3 for definition) and Enrollment Brokers (See section I.3 for definition)to help them make informed decisions about options they have for receiving their Medicare and Medicaid benefits. SHIPs and ADRCs are directed to ensure that options counseling for Medicare-Medicaid individuals that are part of the State Demonstration is separate and distinct from benefits counseling they may perform for any and all beneficiaries that are not part of the State Demonstration described in this FOA and paid for under other grant funding opportunities.
