SCAN has been providing an expanded version of Trading Ages(TM) to its employees for many years to ensure they better understand the needs and mindset of health plan members. The program has also been offered to SCAN providers, The Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale and other community organizations. SCAN just recently began offering a modified version of the program to school audiences.

"As seniors represent a greater portion of our society, this type of education is more important than ever," said Lescault. "As a health plan focused on the unique needs of seniors, we are providing this program so that the younger generation can better relate to their older family members and other seniors in their community."
