Throughout the development of the dual eligible demonstration, consumer advocates pushed for the inclusion of strong consumer protections in all models.  This section of the website provides references and resources on the consumer protections that should be included in all current and future integration models.

Advocate Tools provides examples of recommendations advocates made during the demonstration’s design. Recommendations are organized by topic.

LTSS in Managed Care is a toolkit for advocates on LTSS-specific beneficiary protections developed in partnership with the Disability Rights Education and Defense Fund (DREDF).

Recommended Reading provides links to key reports and issue briefs that provide important background for advocates.

Custom Search is a tool we’ve built to help advocates sort through the volumes of material on the web related to dual eligibles. This search tool uses select terms and websites to direct you to the most relevant studies, issue briefs, reports, and tool kits on dual eligibles.
