The ADVANTAGE Care Select Program currently operates under an “open referral” network. Care Select Primary Medical Providers (PMPs) can refer to any Indiana Medicaid participating provider by notifying the provider of the referral and documenting in the patients chart. No additional forms or faxes are required.

ADVANTAGE Care Select works with providers to ensure members receive additional support to manage their health. Through care management, patients have an advocate that will help them access the resources they need. We work with them, as well as you, their PMP, to ensure that they have a treatment plan that meets their needs.

Care Management identifies and connects with the benefits and services that meet the needs, goals and priorities for the member, caregivers and family members, to include:

 » Social

 » Behavioral

 » Physical

 » Educational

 » Coordinate services based on needs, goals and member’s priorities

 » Communication across the spectrum of health care providers (physicians, community-based organizations, waiver programs, school-based services)

 » Ensure Right Services; Right Time; Right Resource

 » Integrate the behavioral, physical, social and educational needs of all members

 » Advocate for the member "TO MAKE IT HAPPEN" by:
