This course will provide an overview on healthcare options for New York State residents, the processes for connecting individuals to available health care options and identification of health care options within the PPS area.

The creation of the “Healthcare Connectivity” training will satisfy the requirements for Milestone #11 of the Patient Activation Project (2di) (“Contract or partner with CBOs to develop a group of community navigators (aka PAM Coaches) who are trained in connectivity to healthcare coverage, community healthcare resources (including for primary and preventive services) and patient education”) and Milestone #15 of the Patient Activation Project (2di) (“Inform and educate navigators about insurance options and healthcare resources available to UI, NU, and LU populations”).

This session is open to all, but individuals trained in Patient Activation Measure (PAM) and/or Coaching For Activation (CFA) are encouraged to attend.
