The Health Navigation and Clinical Services (HNCS) strategy is also known as the Women's Wellness Connection or WWC.
Strategies
There are two sub-strategies within the Health Navigation and Clinical Services strategy:
- Health Navigation and Clinical Services sub-strategy for eligible uninsured/underinsured clients (required).
- Organizations are required to implement (or plan for implementation of) the Health Navigation and Clinical Services sub-strategy for uninsured/underinsured clients.
- Health Navigation sub-strategy for eligible insured clients (optional).
- The Health Navigation sub-strategy for insured clients is optional and not all organizations will be funded to implement (or plan for implementation of) this sub-strategy.
Health Navigation
- Funds navigation of eligible clients into timely and complete breast and cervical cancer screening and diagnostic services.
- Reduces disparities by helping eligible clients overcome barriers.
- It can be provided to eligible insured, uninsured or underinsured clients.
Clinical Services
- Funds breast and cervical cancer screening and diagnostic procedures for eligible uninsured or underinsured clients.
- Reduces disparities by reducing out-of-pocket costs of screening for eligible uninsured or underinsured clients.
- Cannot be implemented without also implementing Health Navigation for this same group of clients.
