The Department has elected mandatory enrollment of eligible caretaker relatives, poverty level pregnant women, and children 19 (effective 01-01-14) years of age and under, into managed care. The purpose of this mandatory enrollment is to assure adequate access to primary care, improve the quality of care, promote coordination and continuity of health care, reduce costs, and to assist recipients to use the health care system appropriately. The Primary Care Provider Program also establishes co-payments for certain services. Information about the program can be found in Service Chapter 510-06.
