Care Coordination

I am a certified Care Coordinator with the State of Alaska. I am working with Senior & Disability Services to provide coordination of care to those in the Seward community who have qualified for waiver services or who would like to qualify.

Contact me to see if I would be the right person to assist you.

As a care coordinator I will assist individuals to gain access to home and community-based waiver services under 7 AAC 130; Community First Choice services under 7 AAC 127; and other state plan services, as well as medical, social, educational, and other services with funding sources other than Medicaid. This is done through a person-centered process led by the recipient and the planning team of the recipient’s choosing. I also perform targeted case management services, which include helping recipients to complete an application and then submitting the application for home and community-based waiver services, Community First Choice services, or both. Once an applicant is determined eligible, I will assist applicants with identifying goals, planning for services and selecting service providers. I will also assist the recipient-directed team to develop an initial support plan. Finally, I will assist recipients to direct the team in reviewing goals and renewing the support plan annually. On-going care coordination is a home and community-based waiver service that includes monthly monitoring of services in the support plan. I will remain in contact with the recipient throughout the support plan year, in manner and with a frequency appropriate to the needs of the recipient. For a recipient receiving only Community First Choice services, I will provide case management services during the recipient’s support plan year.
