Washington Health Home Program
WA DSHS HCLA
A joint program of DSHS and the Washington Health Care Authority (HCA), run since 2013, focused on Medicare and Medicaid enrollees with the highest health risks. Care Coordinators develop individualized Health Action Plans and deliver six core services: comprehensive care management; care coordination across systems; health promotion and education; comprehensive transitional care and follow-up; individual and family support; and referrals to community and social services. Participation is entirely voluntary and does not replace existing services, it is an added layer of support on top of them. There is also a separate Health Home program for Tribes.
