Commonwealth Coordinated Care Plus (CCC Plus)

Asthma and COPD Support

Individual care to help control your child's asthma.

Does your child have trouble managing asthma or COPD symptoms? A nurse who specializes in breathing issues can really help. Your child will get a customized treatment plan and medicine to:

• Manage flare-ups.
• Reduce symptoms.
• Let your child stay active.

Care Coordinator

Our members’ safety is our focus. For members who need extra care, like after a major illness, we’ll visit them at home to make sure they’re doing okay.

During this visit, we:

• Understand your personal needs.
• See if your home needs minor modifications, such as ramps and bathroom safety devices.
• Set up emergency monitoring.
• Arrange for personal care attendants.

Care Management

Do you or a loved one have a serious health problem? If so, our case managers are in your corner. They will:

• Explain medical terms in plain language.
• Coordinate your doctor appointments.
• Provide your care team with your medical records.

Your care manager will stay close by throughout the medical journey. He or she will:

• Think beyond immediate medical needs.
• Make sure you have support at home.

So you can focus on getting better.

Choose a Birth Center

Where you have your baby is an important choice. That's why you can pick from a large network of hospitals  all across Washington.

We also encourage you to tour the hospital's birthing center. This way you will be familiar with it. And be more relaxed when you have your baby.

Choice of Doctor

You get a primary care physician (PCP) who is your main doctor. Use the Doctor Lookup tool to see if your doctor is in our network.

If you don’t have a doctor or if your doctor is not in our network, we can help you find a new one close to you. 

Your PCP is your main doctor for:

• Preventive care.
• Treatment if you are sick or injured.
• Referrals to specialists for certain conditions.

Dental Care

Beginning July 1, 2021, coverage will include cleanings, x-rays, exams, fillings, dentures, root canals, gum-related treatment, oral surgery and more.   Your dental services are provided by the State, not UnitedHealthcare.

Equipment and Medical Supplies
