Medicare education in housing facilities.

Housing professionals who work with older or disabled residents often are asked questions about Medicare-related issues. Many lack the training and education to adequately respond to the questions because their primary responsibilities are not directly related to Medicare. This brief describes a pilot project that tested different methods to educate housing and social services staff about Medicare to better equip them to assist residents with Medicare-related informational needs, and perhaps to better serve as a resource to the broader community.
