Deciphering the Medical Insurance Maze
- Do you have questions about how MassHealth (Medicaid), Medicare, and private insurance work for your adult disabled dependent?
- What happens when you retire? What is the difference between SSDI and SSI?
- How can I utilize Premium Assistance?
Attend this free workshop to learn about navigating this often-tangled web as you pursue assisting your loved one.
Our speaker is Terri Farrell, senior project director of the Insurance Resource Center for Autism and Behavioral Health. She came to this work through her son, who was diagnosed with autism at age 3. In 2017, Terri joined the MBHP (Massachusetts Behavioral Health Partnership) Family Advisory Council. In April 2017, she was appointed to the Massachusetts State Autism Commission 22+ employment sub-committee. She was the government affairs chair and Autism Advocacy event chair for AFAM (Advocates for Autism of Massachusetts) from 2013-2023. In 2023, Terri was named to the Faculty for Harvard Medical School’s Online Education course, Clinical Care for Autistic Adults. Terri received a 2024 Massachusetts Heroine Award from the Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Women for her autism advocacy work.
