Abstract: Grant funds are awarded by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to states to provide information, counseling and assistance to beneficiaries relating to Medicare and Medicaid matters as well as Medicare supplement policies, managed care options including Medicare Advantage, long-term care insurance, and other health insurance benefit information. States may carry out the objective of the grants by providing one-on-one counseling, either face-to-face or over the telephone, by trained paid and volunteer staff, by distributing written informational materials, or by holding group educational seminars and presentations and outreach events. The current Client Contact Form, Public and Media Activity Report Form, and Resource Report Form have been used to collect data to evaluate program effectiveness and improvement, and these forms expire July 31, 2013.
