Health Central from Connectinc
What is Health Central?
The approach and strategy for the Health Central program revolves around preventative medical care and chronic disease management. Connectinc believes that healthy lifestyles and access to reliable, consistent health care services are essential to increasing an individual’s self-sufficiency and contribution to the community.
Who is eligible?
DW MARP assists dislocated workers who are uninsured or underinsured. The program is offered to dislocated workers who are enrolled in our Dislocated Worker Program.
HC MARP receives referrals from free clinics and the Scotland County Memorial Hospital. Physicians affiliated with the Scotland County Memorial Hospital, the Sandhills Community of Care Network, and the Mid-Carolina Physician Organization also refer patients directly to the program.
WC MARP is funded by the Golden LEAF Foundation. We work with every patient referred to us to help them attain their medication and enter or sustain employment. The patients referred to us are patients who do not have health insurance that covers their prescriptions and who face significant economic distress in maintaining their prescription regimen. Participants also receive assistance in job search, career advancement, and asset accumulation. Self-referrals are welcome.
How does Health Central work?
- The potential participant simply calls toll free at 888-927-3230 to file an application.
- An application is completed by a Connectinc representative based on the information provided over the phone
- The Connectinc representative will be able to immediately notify the worker if the medication(s) is available for free or at a reduced cost
- The caller will be required to mail Connectinc required financial information to support the financial data collected by phone.
- Once the financial data is received, the completed application package will be mailed to the caller for required signatures from the caller and his or her physician.
- Based on the pharmaceutical manufacturer requirements, the medication will be mailed directly to the caller or the physician’s office.
- Once the medication is received and dispensed, Connectinc will update its records which will prompt a representative to contact the caller when it is time to reorder the medication.
The Health Central program helps participants learn a healthier way of thinking and living and allows their income to provide for necessities for them and their families. Health Central is yet another way that Connectinc helps families get connected.
