Coverage to Care: News and Updates

Volume #4; December 2024

The Coverage to Care (C2C) initiative, developed by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, helps individuals understand their health coverage and access the primary care and preventive services right for them. Stay informed with the latest news and updates on how C2C continues to connect people to important resources and information.

In addition to regular C2C updates we want to use this edition to highlight how to use C2C after Open Enrollment (OE). C2C resources provide critical information to assist consumers with the next steps after enrolling or changing their plan. Some key materials to review after the enrollment period include the Enrollment Toolkit [ https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fwww.cms.gov%2Ffiles%2Fdocument%2Fc2c-enrollment-toolkit-2021.pdf/1/01010193b12b2a19-533339fa-32b3-4f8f-800e-079be7f2c6cb-000000/XwkuBQKEGdwUE3eAYMbE8rp30vQVNEk8A9yzD_lVpbo=382 ], Roadmap to Better Care [ https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fwww.cms.gov%2Ffiles%2Fdocument%2Froadmap-better-care-english.pdf-0/1/01010193b12b2a19-533339fa-32b3-4f8f-800e-079be7f2c6cb-000000/GkQGgB0-X92P8irWcZOxfDfz8OefQdVzwExyRENtlso=382 ], 5 Ways to Make the Most of Your Health Coverage [ https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fwww.cms.gov%2Fabout-cms%2Fagency-information%2Fomh%2Fdownloads%2F5-ways-to-make-the-most-of-your-coverage.pdf/1/01010193b12b2a19-533339fa-32b3-4f8f-800e-079be7f2c6cb-000000/4LOd7bcP16M48qytA5zC1NAA6gptjrwVyvJkQFz1-qI=382 ], My Health Coverage at-a-Glance [ https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fwww.cms.gov%2FAbout-CMS%2FAgency-Information%2FOMH%2FDownloads%2FMyHealthCoverage.pdf/1/01010193b12b2a19-533339fa-32b3-4f8f-800e-079be7f2c6cb-000000/4BV9TQmilluCLC7OBK9R3UyWzXFHX64jGvX5rIGOnJs=382 ], and Manage Your Health Care Costs [ https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fwww.cms.gov%2Fabout-cms%2Fagency-information%2Fomh%2Fdownloads%2Fc2c-manage-your-healthcare-costs-508.pdf/1/01010193b12b2a19-533339fa-32b3-4f8f-800e-079be7f2c6cb-000000/5tqwzV5Yv1DvbdZIh9OGla5ihz7iUXDPDSexeYgv704=382 ].

*Partner Spotlight*

C2C relies on trusted community partners. We are excited to spotlight different partners that are educating their community about how to get the most out of their coverage with C2C. Our collaboration with Eastside Community Network [ https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fwww.ecn-detroit.org%2F/1/01010193b12b2a19-533339fa-32b3-4f8f-800e-079be7f2c6cb-000000/TtKhU_Efw9aaakcuZ-kiqI-KWTIoEB-5TtG1Sb_RjQs=382 ] (ECN) helped us reach residents living on Detroit’s east side. In 2023 ECN distributed C2C materials at their Women and Youth/AIDS Testing Day Health Fair, Show Me Money Day event, and Juneteenth Family Fest.

"“When I see programs like Coverage to Care come into our community and really give people the tools and resources they need to navigate these systems and get what they need, it’s unreal for me. Because if people have the tools to get what they need to reach their health care goals, to make sure their family is healthy, then that’s one step closer to the world that we all really want to live in.” –" "Nayomi Cawthorne, Director of Stoudamire Wellness Hub"
