Most people will get the same Medicaid services in a new way – through health plans.
You will be able to choose the health plan that is best for you. A health plan is a group of doctors, hospitals and other providers. They work together to give you the health care you need. Everything will come from the same plan. This includes physical health, mental health, and medicine. Some health plans provide added services like programs to help you quit smoking.
You will also choose a primary care provider (PCP). A PCP could be your family doctor, clinic or other health care provider. They will help you with your health care needs.
- Many people who receive Medicaid will soon get to choose a health plan and a primary care provider.
- CommWell Health wants to continue being your primary care provider. You can use the contact information below when choosing your primary care provider:
