Hometown Health and Senior Care Plus Member Outreach Program
The Hometown Health and Senior Care Plus Member Outreach Program is a proactive initiative designed to ensure our members receive comprehensive healthcare by actively closing gaps in care. Through this program, our dedicated coordinators reach out personally to members via telephone or MyChart to facilitate essential healthcare services such as cancer screenings, immunizations, comprehensive health assessments, and annual wellness visits.
One of the key strengths of our program lies in the seamless coordination between our plan coordinators and the medical group. Utilizing the same electronic medical record and scheduling system, our coordinators can efficiently act on behalf of both the plan and the medical group. This integrated approach ensures a smooth process from outreach to the delivery of results, minimizing any potential gaps in communication or care.
The Member Outreach Program is interactive and personalized. Our coordinators not only schedule appointments but also provide education on the importance of the outreach initiative. They guide members through the process, addressing any concerns or questions they may have along the way. Additionally, our coordinators ensure that all relevant information is relayed to the members’ healthcare providers, facilitating continuity of care.
We understand that healthcare is personal, and members have the autonomy to opt out of outreach initiatives at any time during the call. Respecting individual preferences and choices is fundamental to our approach, and we strive to provide a supportive and patient-centered experience for all our members.
Through proactive outreach and personalized support, the Senior Care Plus Member Outreach Program aims to enhance the overall health and well-being of our members, ensuring they receive the quality care they deserve.
