Our care coordination approach supports a member’s health and human service needs. Our care coordinators are trained to look at the whole person. Empathy and trust are central to success. Care coordination is built around advocacy, communication and providing resources.

All SNBC members have access to care coordination. Care coordinators assist our members to connect with social and health care services. Care coordinators help members complete a health risk assessment to better understand a member’s situation and needs.
