Description: The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the New Freedom Initiative (NFI) Subcommittee on Caregiving present a special satellite broadcast, “Innovative Employer Caregiving Programs.” The program is designed to provide employers, caregivers, and human services professionals with information about and examples of successful programs for employed caregivers.

Presenters will discuss the current research and describe programs designed to support employed caregivers. Listeners will hear first hand how employers are addressing this issue, learn how caregivers are finding the support they need to more successfully balance their work and caregiving responsibilities and discover tips and methods for replicating these approaches in their own agencies and companies.

The broadcast will be introduced by Kerry Weems, CMS Acting Administrator.

Why is this important?
  • A unique opportunity to reach out to organizations that work to support caregivers in their interaction with Medicare and Medicaid.
  • Raise awareness and sensitivity to the challenges employed caregivers have in balancing work and their caregiving responsibilities.
  • Improve the coordination of resources and services for caregivers, employers and partners.
Value to HHS employees?
  • Learn about the economic impact caregiving has in the workplace.
  • Identify caregiving resources for your work and/or personal needs.
  • Identify new partner agencies for current or future HHS collaborations.
