As the direction of health care changes, more and more people are electing to remain in their homes, or in an assisted living facility longer with the assistance of additional clinical and financial support programs that can be accessed with MassHealth Benefits. 

 

JBooker, LLC can help you to access the MassHealth coverage needed to take advantage of these programs. Here are some helpful contacts to explore the options available to Medicare beneficiaries with MassHealth coverage:

 

Senior Care Options ("SCO")

SCO offers seniors the benefits of coordinated care services. Members enrolled in SCO have 24-hour access to care and active involvement in decisions about their health care. SCO members have a primary care physician (PCP) who is affiliated with the senior care organization. The member's primary care physician and a team of nurses, specialists, and a geriatric support services coordinator work with the member (and family members or caregivers, if applicable) to develop a plan of care to specifically address the needs of the member.
