Rocky Mountain Health Plan/ Flow Chart Overview

Day-to-Day Operations / Flow Chart Overview

Case Study One of our first program participants was a 31-year-old father of 3, who was hospitalized for cellulitis that developed from a MRSA infection, and who has a history of incomplete paralysis as a result of a spinal cord injury incurred in a motor vehicle accident two years ago. He is now disabled and struggles with mental health issues, as well. The Transition Coach, along with the home health nurse that was involved, helped the participant and his wife work through the multiple medication discrepancies that were identified. The TC also helped him to identify and work on his personal health goal of improving his mobility, which he accomplished with the assistance of Mesa County ARCH. He was able to obtain new shoes fitted by an orthotist, which immediately improved his personal mobility, and he was connected with transportation options that are paid for by his Medicaid coverage, giving him a greater ability to get to his appointments even when his wife is not available to transport him. The participant was also connected with case management services through Rocky Mountain Health Plans, his Medicaid provider, as a result of the coordination between CTI and RMHP.
