CPA ElderCare - PrimePlus: A Practitioner's Resource Guide - Third Edition

This third edition of CPA ElderCare/PrimePlus Services: A Practitioner’s Resource Guide contains various updates to help you stay on top of ElderCare/PrimePlus concerns and advise your clients accordingly. We’ve made a number of changes to the book to make resources easier to find and link to. Updates include:

• Medicare Part D prescription drug programs
• Medigap Supplement plans A-J
• Original (fee-for-service) versus Medicare Advantage (managed-care)
• Federal and state programs for the elderly, including new rules covering Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security

The National Association of Insurance Commissioners has once again been kind enough to allow us to reprint their updated Shopper’s Guide to Long-Term Care Insurance. We’ve updated and expanded the companion CD-ROM and created easy links to all the organizations, agencies and services you and your clients need access to via the Associations and Other Resources link from the CD-ROM. These resources include:

• Federal Agencies
• Health and Aging Associations
• State Agencies on Aging
• State Long-Term Care Programs
• State Offices on Aging
• State Vocational and Rehabilitation Offices
• State-by-State Elder Abuse Hotlines
• Telecommunications Services for Deaf and Speech-Impaired People
• The Better Business Bureau
• Where to Learn More About Aging

As always, you can print and customize the practice aids and/or use the PowerPoint presentation to introduce CPA ElderCare/PrimePlus services to your clients (the presentation helps standardize the information provided to the public about these services).
