Recovery Plan offer?

Q. What happens if I need healthcare outside of the scope of services offered at a Take Care Clinic?
A. Take Care Clinics do not provide all of the primary care services that a patient may need and they also do not treat chronic conditions. Take Care Health practitioners will work with patients to provide a referral to a primary care or other appropriate healthcare provider should they have a pre-existing chronic condition or if the condition falls outside of the scope of services at a Take Care Clinic. A patient is responsible for all fees and charges billed by any healthcare providers a Take Care Health Practitioner refers the patient to outside of the Take Care Clinic. The Take Care Recovery Plan offer is aimed at helping patients meet their healthcare needs, and we will do our best to help patients and their families navigate their way through an excellent healthcare experience.
