The nonprofit National Senior Citizens Law Center will host a free 90-minute webinar that promises to "examine how the new health care reform law will impact low-income older adults."

The webinar will present an overview of how the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) will affect older individuals, with a focus on the Medicaid long-term services and support provisions relating to long-term care facilities. NSCLC experts will also explain changes in the Act that will particularly affect "dual eligibles," those who received both Medicare and Medicaid. Certain changes affect the Medicare Part D prescription drug program and Medicare Advantage managed care packages, for which overall funding was reduced.
