About Community Choice
Community Choice is a healthcare consortium composed of
regional healthcare organizations including 5 hospitals and 10 clinics with a
total or 200+ physician members in North Central Washington. In addition to these member
organizations, we enjoy partnerships and collaboration with
various other organizations in the areas of mental/behavioral
health, social services and government institutions.
As a management support organization, we provide assistance
in information technology implementation, recruitment of healthcare
disciplines, HIPPA compliance training, cultural competency
in healthcare, and overall leadership in keeping up with the
constantly changing healthcare environment. Our efforts to
reduce the number of uninsured and underinsured in our service
includes a Community Access Program (CAP) to increase access to affordable healthcare
insurance programs for eligible individuals in our service
area. With funding from our state's Office of the Insurance
Commissioner, we sponsor the SHIBA HelpLine
(Statewide Health Insurance Benefit Advisors) for Chelan,
Douglas, Okanogan, Grant and Adams Counties in North Central
Washington State. Through the SHIBA HelpLine program we
coordinate and train volunteers to provide guidance and
counseling in navigating the complex health system in our
state. We have deliberately brought together the key
organizations in rural communities with the expertise to implement a multidisciplinary
approach of care management for individuals with chronic and
complex health
conditions.
