Unmet Needs for Help at Home: How Older Adults and Adults With Disabilities Are Faring in California
About 14 million adults in the United States need home and community-based services (HCBS) to maintain their independence and support their quality of life.

Fact Sheet
People with disabilities who need help to remain at home and maintain their independence are at increased financial risk due to out-of-pocket spending on health care and on home- and community-based services. Rates of economic hardship are especially high for those who need long-term services and supports (LTSS), even among those with substantial financial resources.

Journal Article
While immigrants in the U.S. suffer poor access to health care in general, access within immigrant populations varies notably by legal status and employment. Intersections between immigration, employment, and health care policy have shaped immigrants' access or exclusion from health care; however, little research has examined how immigrants experience and navigate these intersections.

Journal Article
To improve the coordination of long-term services and supports for dual-eligibles (those with both Medicare and Medicaid), California created Cal MediConnect (CMC), an Affordable Care Act-authorized managed care demonstration program. Beneficiaries were "passively enrolled" into CMC, meaning they were automatically enrolled unless they actively opted out. The aim of this study was to examine differences in factors influencing the enrollment decisions of U.S.
