Location:
Cherokee Indian Hospital
Scope of Work: The MCC provides advocacy
and case management for pregnant women. While the primary
focus in on pregnant women who are Medicaid eligible, MCC
also provides these same services to non-Medicaid eligible
pregnant women. Case Management requires that the MCC have
minimum of one monthly contact with Medicaid eligible pregnant
women. This contact may occur in the home, office, community
or by phone. Advocacy involves scheduling appointments,
assisting with
alternate resource information, and arranging other necessary
support services.
