Children’s Special Health Care Services (CSHCS): Have you heard of it? In the simplest terms, it is defined by the need for specialty care required for your child. It’s not a Medicaid program. Access to the program has nothing to do with your household income.
The program has a lot of benefits. CSHCS covers transportation that can include airfare and/or lodging for conferences relate3d to your child's condition. Children Special Health Care Services has been around for almost 100 years.
Danielle Pitchford, with CSHCS is explains the program to us in great detail. Pitchford is the Outreach and Engagement Analyst and oversees promoting CSHCS services and resources while engaging with providers. She also works with other professionals who work with the target population, as well as families of children with special health care needs.
To be transparent, Laura sits on the Michigan BioTrust for Health Community Values Advisory Board, which is part of MI DHHS. She also sits on a Family to Family volunteer group. And, her daughters benefited from CSHCS until they moved out of state.
