Benefits Planning Series – Session 4: Navigating Healthcare

Healthcare coverage can feel complicated, especially as young adults transition into adulthood, begin working, or move between benefit programs. Understanding how Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, and waiver services fit together is key to protecting access to care. In this video, Kelley Land explains how Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, and waiver programs connect and how work protections like 1619(b), DAC Medicaid, and the Buy-In Program help keep coverage in place. Families will learn how to keep coverage steady during school, work, and other major transitions. This webinar is part 4 of PEAK Parent Center’s Benefits Planning Series, designed to help families understand benefits, employment, healthcare, and financial decisions after high school.
