DREDF releases self-directed health care training modules for aging and disability organizations. Improving Access to Health Care for People with Disabilities is intended to help senior, disability, and affinity organizations to develop their capacity to assist people with disabilities access health care and long-term services and supports (LTSS). This tool will also increase the organizational capacity of senior, disability, and affinity organizations to advise Medicaid Managed Care Organizations about methods to assure access, equal and effective treatment, and appropriate accommodations for members and others with disabilities.
