INDEPENDENCE

Older adults and people with disabilities may qualify for programs that help pay for healthcare, provide support at home, or make it possible to remain in their communities rather than move into a nursing facility. TJC helps Tennesseans understand these programs, access the services they qualify for, and address problems with their coverage.
SERVICES AND SUPPORT
HEALTHCARE
COSTS
Help with programs that provide healthcare coverage or assistance with Medicare costs.
CARE AT HOME & IN THE COMMUNITY
Help accessing long-term services and supports that allow older adults and people with disabilities to live safely in their homes and communities.
LOSS OF BENEFITS
Help if you've been denied coverage or services, are losing benefits, or aren't receiving the services you're approved for.
ADVOCATE FOR INDEPENDENCE
Decisions about long-term care, home and community-based services, Medicare assistance, and disability programs have a direct impact on whether Tennesseans can live independently. Your voice can help make sure older adults and people with disabilities are heard when those decisions are made.
