Quicklinks for Health Care
Welcome to the Health Care Practice Area section. Here you will find information about a variety of health care programs for low income, elderly and disabled people. The most extensive information is about the Massachusetts Medicaid program (MassHealth) including fair hearing decisions, court decisions, practice memos, advocacy alerts and links to useful websites. If you want information about SSI/ SSDI, check the Disability section; for Medicare issues, check the Elder section.
Please forward suggestions for content, or problems with broken links, etc. to Neil Cronin. ncronin@MLRI.org
Resource Library Materials: Browse the library by topic by clicking on a link in the sidebar to the left. If a listed topic also has subtopics, you can find out what these are by clicking on the triangle. Or, use the search, particularly if you want information on cross substantive issues or wish to restrict your search to a particular kind of document.
