A Special Message from The Healthcare Consortium

A SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM CLAIRE PARDE, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE HEALTHCARE CONSORTIUM  I would like to advise the people of Taghkanic that the Navigator Program of the Healthcare Consortium remains ready to assist individuals with enrolling in health insurance—including the public health insurance options, Medicaid, the Essential Plan, Child Health Plus, and the commercial, self-pay products, collectively called “Qualified Health Plans”—on the NY State of Health.  Consumers should call 518-822-8820—the Healthcare Consortium’s main phone number—which is currently redirected to the cell phone of Lisa Thomas, Director of our Consumer Assistance Programs of which the Navigator Program is one.  Lisa will assist consumers with scheduling a telephone appointment with a Navigator. Our four Navigators are all working safely from home offices and remain deeply committed to providing assistance to the residents of Columbia and Greene Counties during this difficult time. With thanks, and well wishes, Claire Claire Parde, MS Executive Director                   The Healthcare Consortium 325 Columbia St Suite 200 Hudson NY 12534 518.822.8820  fax 518.828.1479 cparde@columbiahealthnet.org www.columbiahealthnet.org
