PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM

Community Health Partnership, a program of Partnership Health Plan, Inc. provides for expanded care management. Member benefits include:

• health and medical services
• prescription drugs
• long-term care services

Continued independence and quality of life are common desires for us and our loved ones. For individuals with chronic health conditions or functional decline, it can be difficult to meet these challenges without assistance.

Our Partnership Program partners with you, local doctors, family, and the community to create a plan of care that emphasizes your independence. As a member in the Partnership Program, you are assigned an Interdisciplinary Team comprised of a nurse practitioner, registered nurse, social services coordinator, a team assistant and other professionals. These staff are trained to coordinate and provide care to meet your needs. Most importantly, your Team gets to know you very well and works closely to support you in your wish to live as independently as possible.

A contract with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) along with a contract with Wisconsin Department of Health and Family Services (DHFS) allows the Partnership Program to cover all your Medicare & Medicaid benefits. One of three Partnership Programs in Wisconsin, CHP provides you with the health and supportive care you need to remain as independent as possible and active in the community.
