Provider NetworkCommonwealth Care Alliance is dedicated to providing our membership with an extensive network of health care providers that cover the full spectrum of health care needs, from in-patient hospitalizations to help with day to day at home care needs. We believe it is important to recognize the value of community caregivers and to respect the relationship forged in trust between members and their caregivers. In pursuit of this goal, Commonwealth Care Alliance has contracted relationships with a wide variety of providers, encompassing Primary Care and Physician Specialty providers, Hospital and Rehabilitation facilities, Behavioral Health providers, Certified Home Health Care providers, and a variety of organizations that provide services to our members within their communities, such as adult day health providers, chore services, homemaker services, and personal care attendants. Primary CarePrimary Care Physicians are key to members’ well-being and satisfaction, and with this in mind, Commonwealth Care Alliance members are assigned a Primary Care Physician at the time of enrollment. Our Care Coordination program is based upon a team approach, and to this end, Primary Care Physicians for the Senior Care Options Program are supported with a Nurse Practitioner, Registered Nurse or Physician Assistant, and a Geriatric Support Services Coordinator (GSSC). This group of health care professionals is called the Primary Care Team (PCT). Together, the PCT is charged with effectively coordinating and delivering all aspects of a CCA member’s care. Commonwealth Care Alliance contracts with specific community-based Primary Care Sites (PCS) to accomplish the delivery of primary care services to our membership. A PCS, in most cases a community-based medical care or physician practice, is an organized medical group that has demonstrated experience with and a particular commitment to the populations that Commonwealth Care Alliance serves. It is at these sites that the Primary Care Teams are based and operate from. Home visiting Primary Care services are also an integral part of our Primary Care formula, and are employed when appropriate to facilitate a member’s care.
