Benefits Counseling

MAP's benefits counselor provides education, assistance and advocacy to individuals or service providers who have HIV-related concerns or questions about social security, Medicare, Medical Assistance, or private disability and health insurance.

Benefits counseling can assist HIV-positive individuals who are considering leaving a job or have back-to-work questions, are interested in a benefits check-up, or are experiencing problems with benefits. This program is available statewide through in-person or phone appointments.
