How much does it cost?
This is a Medicaid managed program in which Medicaid pays for Care Management services for those who are eligible. It does not cost you anything to enroll!! This is a completely voluntary service.
If you have Medicaid or a Medicaid Managed Insurance Plan or believe you may qualify for Medicaid, think about the following questions:
- Do you have a chronic or mental health condition(s) that requires you to see your doctor regularly for care?
- Do you have a doctor within your neighborhood whom can see you whenever you need to?
- How often did you go to the emergency room or hospital in the past six months or twelve months?
- Do you have a safe place to live?
- Do you need someone in your life to help you whenever you need help?
- Are you able to keep track of your medical appointments?
