Health Coordinator

An expert in finding solutions to your healthcare needs

When you become an AXIS Healthcare member, your Care Coordinator has continual access to a team of resources, which includes a Member Services Coordinator, Resource Coordinator and a Health Coordinator.

Health Coordinators are experienced nurses who understand the healthcare system and the unique needs of people with disabilities.

The first thing you will do as a member of AXIS is meet with your Care Coordinator to develop a unique plan for your independent living. That plan will include the proper amount of ongoing support that is best for you, your family and your caregivers.

Your Care Coordinator will remain your key contact for all ongoing health activities while you are a member of AXIS. Whenever you have a health-related question, you can call your Care Coordinator directly. AXIS helps you get the treatment you need early, so you can spend more time enjoying life in your community and less time trying to navigate your way through the many layers of the healthcare system.

Here are just a few of the many advantages of having access to a Health Coordinator:

• A nurse is available seven days a week, 24 hours a day, so you don’t have to choose between going to an emergency room or waiting until business hours to ask a medical professional a question.
• Eligibility for Medical Assistance and Medical Care
• Our Health Coordinators understands the unique needs of people with disabilities, so they can be helpful with any issue that impacts your health, such as stress, illness, seating, housing and transportation – anything that is a part of staying healthy, living successfully and living independently.
• Health Coordinators will answer questions, explain options and give as much guidance as needed to help you make the best decisions about your healthcare.
• The final decision about your health and your healthcare is yours. Health Coordinators are simply there to help you make the best choices and decisions possible.
