The Special Needs Program (SNP) offers comprehensive care coordination for medically complex and fragile children who do not have existing care coordination services. Our goal is to ensure seamless inpatient and outpatient care. The SNP partners with patients/families and primary care providers to help optimize coordination. All patients enrolled in the Special Needs Program have a SNP nurse case manager, and some also have a SNP physician care coordinator. All patients in the SNP are encouraged to have a Primary Care Provider. Families, providers, or any caregiver may refer a child to the SNP.
Anyone involved in the care of a child with multiple medical needs, including parents or health care professionals, may make a referral to the Special Needs Program. The program staff reviews each referral and will schedule a consultation to determine care coordination needs and program eligibility. Patients who are eligible will be offered enrollment in the program. For general program information, call (414) 266-6943.
To make a referral to the program, call (414) 266-6943 or toll-free (888) 249-7233.
