Integrated Care in Eighty Four

Eighty Four residents enrolling in Community HealthChoices begin with a call to Maximus at 1-877-550-4227. Maximus is the Independent Enrollment Broker for Pennsylvania's mandatory Medicaid managed care program serving adults 21 and older. CHC covers individuals who are dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid, plus those meeting nursing-facility level-of-care criteria with Medicaid eligibility. A clinical functional eligibility determination establishes whether long-term services and supports are appropriate. After approval, families choose one of three managed care organizations: UPMC Community HealthChoices, AmeriHealth Caritas, or PA Health & Wellness operated by Centene. Each MCO holds contracts with different home care agencies and providers, so the selection matters for caregiver continuity. Care Solutions of Pittsburgh participates with each plan and sends personal assistance caregivers to Eighty Four homes. Our staff support bathing, dressing, transfers, meal preparation, and medication reminders. CHC also funds personal emergency response systems, home-delivered meals, adult day services, and environmental modifications such as ramps and bathroom safety upgrades. The Washington County Area Agency on Aging handles Aging Waiver eligibility under the CHC umbrella for residents 60 and older. Washington Hospital and Canonsburg Hospital manage many local admissions, and our service coordinators time caregiver visits with hospital discharge plans. Eighty Four is an unincorporated community along U.S. Route 519 in North Strabane and Somerset Townships. Call (412) 341-7780 to start CHC support at home through any of the three MCOs.

Community HealthChoices (CHC) is Pennsylvania's mandatory managed care program that brings together physical health, behavioral health, and long-term services and supports into one coordinated program. Our team in Eighty Four helps you navigate all aspects of your care.
