Newly Updated Coverage to Care Resources! Now
Available!
Understanding health coverage can be
confusing, but the Coverage to Care (C2C) initiative is making it easier.
Today, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Office of Minority
Health (CMS OMH) released newly updated C2C resources to help those consumers
you serve understand their health coverage and to get health care services
they need.
The following resources are now available on
the C2C
