LOSpro offers FREE Care Coordination
Care Coordinators are professionals such as Nurses, Social Workers or Case Managers who hold valid Licenses in the States in which they are working. A Coordinator can assist you with initial or with short term needs. They can point you in the right direction and help you find the services you are looking for. A Care Coordinator is not a LOSpro employee, rather an independent associate working under their own license. Care Coordinators generally reside within the territory they manage, thus they are very familiar with services available there.
If after your free phone assessment you find you need further assistance you may choose to hire a Care Coordinator or Geriatric Care Manager (see below) on an extended basis. The costs for these services varies depending on location, qualifications, and services provided. The services are billed on a fee for service basis and are not covered by Medicaid, Medicare, or most private insurance policies. To contact a Care Coordinator click on the Find Services menu above and search for Care Managers & Care Coordinators.
