III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
Mandated under AB2419, the Health Insurance Counseling and.
Advocacy Program has been operated by the County's Office on
Aging for the past nine years. The Program provides
community education, recruitment, training, and coordination
of volunteer counselors in the area of health insurance and
related health care plans. In 1993 , these volunteers
provided individual counseling to 1756 senior citizens
county-wide. Documented savings of $285,888 to seniors is
attributed to the successful efforts of HICAP last year.
