What is
Care Coordination?
Care coordination means that all of your providers work with each other. These providers could be your doctor, behavioral health provider, or your social worker. They want to make sure you get the treatment you need to stay healthy. Your care coordinator can help you find local resources like food, clothing, utility help, transportation, and more. Your care coordinator can also talk to the people involved with you and your family, like your child’s school, or the Department of Human Services.
