About Care Coordination

When you need to navigate labs, imaging, and major procedures, Care Coordination is here to help you find lower cost, high quality providers.

Why we provide this service.

The fact of the matter is – healthcare is complicated, and plan specifics can be hard to understand. This makes finding care difficult to navigate, resulting in people making hasty decisions about when and where to access healthcare.

That’s why Clearwater Benefits has created the Care Coordination program – to help members understand the care they’re paying for, and get to the care they need.
