Consumers for Affordable Health Care to
Provide MaineCare Eligibility Workshop in 
Presque Isle on July 15th

 

(Presque Isle) Consumers for Affordable Health Care (CAHC) will be providing a free MaineCare Eligibility workshop in Presque Isle at the Presque Isle City Hall Council Chambers, 12 Second Street, on July 15th from 9am to 12pm. 
 

Interested parties can register by visiting www.mainecahc.org/events.htm and clicking on "July Workshop" or by calling 1-800-838-0388.
 

CAHC holds several workshops throughout the course of the year to educate providers, caseworkers, and others working with people in need of health care or coverage. Many professionals come to at least one workshop a year to hear about the latest changes to MaineCare or to discover any new programs that may have arisen.
 

This half-day workshop is focused on MaineCare eligibility for children, pregnant women, parents, young adults, and adults who are not disabled or elderly.  Our full-day workshops include additional information on eligibility for disability-related MaineCare.
 

We will provide attendees with the tools to offer information and application assistance to patients and consumers seeking health care coverage. Updates on MaineCare, non-insurance assistance programs, health care reform, and private insurance will also be discussed.
 

Please call Consumers for Affordable Health Care at 1-800-838-0388 or email eblanck@mainecahc.org for more information and to register for the event.
