Subject: review of medicare website
I received this email and thought it might be of
interest to some people on this list. Sounds like an
interesting project...
Announcement of Research Project
The American Foundation for the Blind will be
reviewing the website www.medicare.gov for the Center
for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
We are seeking blind or visually impaired individuals
with various levels of computer expertise to
participate in a telephone focus group. Besides
blindness and visual impairment, individuals must fit
into at least one of the following categories:
a) Age 65 or older, medicare-eligible
b) Age 21-65, disabled and entitled to Medicare
c) Provider of formal or informal care or advice to
Medicare beneficiaries
Time commitment: up to 3 hours
Compensation: $75
The study will contain two parts: a telephone focus
group (participants can call in to an 800 number from
any state), and in-home interviews (participants must
live in or near New York City). All information will
remain strictly confidential.
If you are interested, please reply to this email
([log in to unmask]). Use "Medicare" as your
subject, and include your name, daytime telephone
number, best time to be reached, state in which you
live, and which of the above category or categories
you fit into. In addition, please feel free to
forward this notice to anyone you know who might be
eligible for this study and might like to participate.
We may not be able to select all who respond.
For further information, please contact:
