Health Insurance Counseling and Advocacy Program (HICAP)
HICAP is a volunteer program that helps Medicare recipients, their family, and caregivers understand their health insurance benefits, options, and rights. HICAP offers free, unbiased, confidential, and personal assistance from health insurance counselors registered by the California Department of Aging.
We offer help with Medicare, Medicare supplement policies, Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs), and long-term care insurance. We can also help you with filing and preparing insurance claims and Medicare appeals, if your claim has been denied.
