Health Homes Consumer Tour

Posted February 12, 2014 by Mandy Smith in

The Health Homes Consumer Tour is coming to a city near you!
Health Homes will start in Kansas July 1, 2014. If you have questions about Health Homes and what they mean for your health, these meetings are for you! The meetings are free and you will learn about Health Homes in Kansas.

Are these meetings for you?

You can come to a Health Homes meeting if you meet both requirements below:
        – You are in KanCare AND
        – You have a serious health condition: mental illness, asthma, or diabetes

If you are not in KanCare or don’t have a one of the serious health conditions above, you will not be in a Health Home. If you are a provider we ask that you do not come to these meetings as space is limited. Only providers who are there to help patients should attend.

If you have questions, please call 1-785-296-3981. If you need special assistance for a meeting (like a sign language interpreter or handouts in Braille) please call Cindy at 785-296-4753. You can also email us at healthomes@kdheks.gov. You must ask for this help by noon on February 13th. Transportation to the meetings is not available. We will have two meetings on the same day in each of the cities we visit. You should only attend one meeting. Meetings will be in the afternoon and evening. The afternoon meetings will start at 1:00 PM and end at 3:00 PMThe evening meetings will start at 6:00 PM and end at 8:00 PM.  Please see the dates and places below.
