Aging in Place
Many older people need help paying for prescription drugs, health care, utilities, and other basic needs. Millions of older Americans are eligible for but are not receiving benefits that are available from existing federal, state, and local programs.
Developed and maintained by the National Council on Aging (NCOA), BenefitsCheckUp is the most comprehensive Web based service to screen for benefits programs for seniors with limited income and resources. BenefitsCheckUP includes more than 1,800 public and private benefits programs from all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
