Establishing a Medical Home
Your doctor or PMP is your “medical home.” We call it a medical home
because the health care providers in that office know you and care about you. They
will help you with your health care needs.
When you first become an ADVANTAGE Care Select member, call your doctor
to make an appointment, even if you are not sick. We want you to see your
doctor within the first 60 days of joining our health plan. This is a very good
way for you and your PMP to get to know each other and for your PMP to see what
your health needs are. Your Disease Manager will remind you to do this when they do
your screening, if you have not made your appointment already.
