Case Management

The Access to Care Program will match uninsured clients with a healthcare provider who has agreed to become a primary medical home for them.  Providers agree to see clients at free or discounted rates; focusing on both preventive and acute care office visits.

The primary care providers will contact Julie Sykes, our Specialist Referral Coordinator, when an Access to Care client needs a referral to a specialist. Julie will contact the patient with an appointment date. 
There may be a wait time for the specialist available.  Access to Care may not have a provider available for all specialty areas.

• Access to Care may not be able to help with all types of care and service
• Access to Care is not health insurance
• Access to Care cannot pay past medical expenses.

If you have questions regarding specialist referrals, please call Julie Sykes at 330-926-5766

After seeing a primary care physician, you may have prescriptions that you need to obtain.  Access to Care has a Pharmacy Coordinator who can help you find the best way to access your medications.  The pharmacy coordinator can help you:

• Fill out applications for free medications through Patient Assistance Programs through the pharmaceutical companies
  
  
• Direct you to the $4 generic medications that are available at many pharmacies
  
  
• Answer questions regarding use of Ohio’s Best Rx cards and Executive Med cards that you receive when you are enrolled
