Health Care  
 

  • The best way to locate a health care provider in your county is to call the member services number on your insurance card. The insurance company has a list of healthcare providers available based on your insurance. 

  • If you are interested in physical therapy, speech therapy or occupational therapy talk to your physician.

  • Although you may not need additional caregiver resources now, when that time comes, contact your supports coordinator or your county's Administrative Entity (AE).  

  • If you find that you need support or someone to come to you with healthcare appointments talk to your supports coordinator.
