Care navigation: A better way to experience healthcare

Navigating today's healthcare system can be complicated. To simplify the journey for those we serve, the Board of Pensions partners with Quantum Health to provide members in all three Medical Plan options (PPO, EPO, and HDHP) with access to care navigation as part of their medical benefits. Care navigation helps members and their covered family members receive the right care, at the right place, at the right time.

Why care navigation?

Provided by the Board of Pensions in partnership with Quantum Health, care navigation helps Medical Plan members and their families navigate their healthcare and make the most of their medical benefits. Care navigation enhances the value of medical benefits through the Board of Pensions.

As healthcare has grown increasingly complex, the Board of Pensions wants to help members continue to have successful health outcomes. That's why we provide care navigation to PPO, EPO, and HDHP members as part of their medical benefits. Through care navigation, you have access to Quantum Health's highly trained Care Coordinators who serve as your personal guide, making it easier to navigate today's complicated healthcare system. Care navigation also helps you become a better-informed healthcare consumer so you can take control of your healthcare journey.

Added value to your medical coverage

If you are enrolled in the PPO, EPO, or HDHP, Quantum Health is your primary point of contact when you have questions about your medical or prescription drug benefits or need help with a healthcare issue.* The Quantum Health toll-free number and website are listed on your medical and prescription drug ID cards.

*Members enrolled in Triple-S and GeoBlue should refer to their plan provisions for details about their benefits and contact those plans if they have questions. Retired members enrolled in the Humana Group Medicare Advantage PPO plan should contact Humana at the number on the back of their ID card.
