Medicare
Becoming insured through Medicare can be confusing. We recommend reading about the program at the government's official site www.medicare.gov. Feel free to call our staff with any questions.
Check-up guidelines
One of the keys to lifelong good health is to have regular health screenings. The National Institutes of Health recommends these medical screenings based on your age and gender.
Riverside Nurse telephone service
What can you do if you develop a cough at midnight? Call Riverside Nurse, a free service that's available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. A registered nurse trained in telephone triage will answer your questions and, if needed, refer you to a physician for treatment. Call (800) 675-6368. Of course, if you have a life-threatening situation, call 911.
At Riverside Medical Group, we know managing all your care needs, from routine health maintenance to advice from specialists and changes in medications can be complicated, but it doesn’t have to be.
Chronic Care Management (CCM) is a new program available to Medicare patients living with two or more chronic conditions, such as arthritis, diabetes, depression or high blood pressure.
Care Coordination
Riverside Medical Group offers a service that can help you navigate these challenges. Our CareHarmony care coordination service is designed to help you take care of you! You will benefit by receiving monthly telephone assistance in between your regular appointments. This includes a dedicated Care Coordinator to guide you toward better health.
Chronic Care Management extends your care outside of the four walls of your physician’s practice to ensure that you maintain the best possible health. Each month your Care Coordinator will call you to:
- Assist with scheduling appointments, lab tests or other tests
- Explain how and when to take your medications
- Coordinate any home health or medical equipment needs
- Connect you with health education resources, services and programs
- Identify available community resources
- Coordinate follow-up care after leaving the hospital or the emergency room
- Access other support services you need to stay well
There is also a 24/7 Care Coordinator Phone Line to help answer any questions you may have day or night outside of your calls with your Care Coordinator.
Cost and Coverage
This service is covered by Medicare and is subject to your annual deductible and coinsurance (usually 20%). If you have a secondary or supplemental insurance plan, your coinsurance may be covered. It is best to review exactly what your insurance plan covers.
While you can only sign up for Chronic Care Management services with one of your CareHarmony care coordinators, you are able to opt-out any time—there are no strings attached.
Contact Us
If you have questions about this service and would like to learn more on this program, or how to enroll, please call 757-223-9116 to speak with a Care Coordinator.
