Medicaid is the State of Texas Access Reform (STAR) Managed Care Program (Medicaid). Community provides both Children’s Medicaid and Medicaid for Pregnant Women. These programs are at no cost to U.S. residents who cannot afford health insurance.
We want to hear from you. You are invited to share your feedback about Community at our Member events. Team members are always on site to get your thoughts on how we can serve you better. Additionally, you may be asked during the year to participate in Member Advisory Focus Groups. These facilitated discussions help us learn what your thoughts and preferences are for a variety of items offered by our health plan.
Use our online Provider Search to find a Primary Care Provider or clinic. It is updated every weekday, excluding holidays. You also can search through our printed directories, which are updated quarterly. A referral is a consultation for evaluation and/or treatment of a patient requested by one doctor to another doctor. Community Health Choice will not pay the cost of non-emergency hospital care or medical equipment unless your Primary Care Provider gives you a referral.
Information is available in English and Spanish. Call us to get an interpreter. Information can also be made available in audio, large print, Braille or other languages if needed.
The Provider Directory is available in paper form without charge upon the Member’s request and will be provided within five business days of the Member’s request.
