15 SNAP INCOME GUIDELINES People in household Gross monthly Income FOR SENIORS & DISABLED Many seniors over the age of 59 have not applied for SNAP. Could you be one of them? SNAP is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Each Additional $1,916 $2,586 $3,256 $3,926 $670 ** If your income is above this, you may still be eligible. We can help you figure it out. ** Important Facts: The value of your car, house, life insurance, or savings does not impact your eligibility for SNAP. Receiving benefits doesn t take away from others in need. In fact, SNAP benefits help everyone; you, your grocer, and the local economy. You are not alone. A Food Bank Outreach worker can provide application assistance to you. Worried about getting to DHS for the determination interview? DHS interviews can be done by phone so you don t have to leave your house. The SNAP application for seniors is only 3 pages long. SNAP recipients are also eligible for many other benefits such as energy assistance and lower phone rates. Recurring monthly out-of-pocket medical expenses that exceed $35 a month may be deducted. Once you are found eligible, you only have to recertify every two years, if all members of your household are on a fixed income.

49 State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations RELEASE: December 12, 2013 Department of Human Services Division of Elderly Affairs BY: Catherine Taylor, Director, Rhode Island Division of Elderly Affairs A FRESH LOOK FOR SENIOR NUTRITION IN RHODE ISLAND Do you want to attend a congregate meal site? Although the venues are friendly and inviting and the food is healthy and delicious, the name conjures up something old-fashioned and, to many potential diners, not entirely appealing. Welcome to the Café! The Senior Nutrition Program in Rhode Island is rolling out a new look for 2014 that reflects how we are already catering to the changing appetites of older Rhode Islanders. Each regional nutrition program now has a new name: Blackstone Café, East Bay Café, Westbay Café, Northern Rhode Island Café (run by Senior Services, Inc. of Woonsocket) and Capitol City Café (run by Meals on Wheels of Rhode Island). Our five programs are delivering three meal choices daily to your local community or senior center for your noontime dining enjoyment. The spa option for the health conscious features lighter fare such as a main course salad. The pub option offers a sandwich for those who want a traditional, wholesome lunch. And the hearty option provides a full, hot dinner for those who prefer their main meal at midday. Our diners have been requesting more flexible dining hours, a range of menu offerings and healthier fare, and we are responding by extending the popular Café concept statewide to all senior meal sites. This new initiative is complemented by Meals on Wheels growing cooperative arrangements with select local restaurants that honor vouchers to seniors, expanding the geographical reach of senior dining as well as offering occasional breakfast and dinner opportunities. -more-

50 Director Taylor s January 2014 column-page 2 The Café welcomes all diners 60 and over (in the case of a married couple, only one spouse must be over 60), regardless of ability or income. Lunches are served five days a week. There is a suggested participant donation of $3 per meal to help sustain the program, which is funded by federal Older Americans Act dollars. SNAP beneficiaries may use their SNAP benefits to contribute toward their meal. And the Cafés can always use your help as a volunteer. During the year ending September 30, 2013, senior community meals sites served nearly 338,000 meals. States receive an incentive payment from the U.S. Administration on Aging for the number of meals we report so, the more diners that join us, the more we can serve! For more information, or to find the most convenient Café, call the Division of Elderly Affairs at At least 24 hours notice is required for reservations. (We need to balance serving everyone who wants to join us with avoiding expensive waste.) Transportation to the nearest meal site and/or senior center is available through the RIde program, at a cost of $2 each way. Refresh with a chef salad after a Zumba workout at Blackstone Café at Leon Mathieu in Pawtucket. Relax in front of the fire with soup and sandwich at Westbay Café at The Center in South Kingstown. Dig into Yankee Pot Roast on a winter s afternoon at Northern RI Café in Woonsocket. Whatever your taste, come find it at the Café! ###

55 Senior Medicare Patrol What is the Senior Medicare Patrol? Senior Medicare Patrol programs, or SMPs, help Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries prevent, detect, and report health care fraud. They not only protect older persons, they also help preserve the integrity of the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Because this work often requires face-to-face contact to be most effective, SMPs nationwide rely on more than 5,600 volunteers who are active each year to help in this effort. Tell me about SMP volunteers. Protecting older persons from criminals and saving precious health care dollars at the same time is a mission that attracts many civic-minded Americans. Most SMP volunteers are both retired and on Medicare, so they are well-positioned to assist their peers. How, exactly, do SMPs fight fraud? SMP staff and volunteers work with individual beneficiaries to review Medicare Summary Notices for accuracy, make presentations to groups about how to avoid getting taken by scam artists, exhibit at community health fairs, and more. Their primary goal is to teach Medicare beneficiaries how to protect their personal identity, identify and report errors on their health care bills and identify deceptive health care practices, such as illegal marketing, providing unnecessary or inappropriate services, and charging for services that were never provided. In some cases, SMPs do more than educate: When Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries are unable to act on their own behalf to address these problems, the SMPs work to address the problems, making referrals to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and their anti-fraud contractors; the Office of Inspector General (OIG); state attorneys general offices; local law enforcement; State Health Insurance Assistance Programs (SHIP); state insurance divisions; and other outside organizations that are able to intervene. What is the background of the program? In 1995, the U.S. Administration on Aging (AoA) became a partner in a government-led effort to fight fraud, error, and abuse in the Medicare and Medicaid programs through the implementation of a ground-breaking demonstration project called Operation Restore Trust (ORT). ORT s purpose was to coordinate and target federal, state, local, and private resources on those areas most plagued by abuse. Operation Restore Trust was announced at the 1995 White House Conference on Aging. It created a partnership in the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) between CMS, the OIG, and the AoA, which continue to work as a team in a coordinated anti-health care fraud effort at the local, state, and national levels. continued

56 Find an SMP at In 1997, because of the Omnibus Consolidated Appropriation Act of 1997 (Public Law ), AoA established 12 local demonstration projects designed to recruit and train retired professionals such as doctors, nurses, teachers, lawyers, accountants, and others to identify and report error, fraud, and abuse. Senate Report noted that senior citizens are our best front line defense against these losses. Tell me about the scope of the SMP program today. Based on the success of these demonstration projects, the SMP program is now in every state, as well as the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands. Under Title IV of the Older Americans Act, approximately $9.3 million in grants are provided annually. Beginning in FY2010, CMS provided additional funds to double SMP program efforts. To implement this expansion, the AoA has awarded $9 million in additional annual funds to the nationwide network of SMPs to enhance their volunteer programs and outreach efforts. What has the SMP program achieved over the years? Since 1997 almost 27 million people have been reached during community education events, more than 5 million beneficiaries have been educated and served, and more than 30,000 volunteers have been active. Total savings to Medicare, Medicaid, beneficiaries and other payers attributed to the SMP projects is $106 million. (Source: May 2011 OIG Performance Report) What are examples of fraud and waste seen by SMPs? Equipment or insurance plan providers tricking senior center participants into giving up their personal information (including Medicare numbers) on sign-in sheets Medicare Summary Notices showing billing for services or supplies that were never provided Equipment suppliers providing expensive scooter wheelchairs not ordered by a physician or needed by the beneficiary Luring beneficiaries into providing their Medicare numbers for free services, then billing Medicare Kickbacks paying beneficiaries to receive service from a particular provider or company Where can I learn more?
