Center for Children with Medical Complexity

The Center for Children with Medical Complexity provides care coordination services for children who require complex medical care through a partnership with managed care organizations of Mississippi Medicaid. Our care coordination program is specially designed to help our patients get the best care possible. We help in three main ways: 

• Coming home from the hospital: If your child is seen in any ER or discharged from any hospital, we’ll call to make sure that you got home with all your prescriptions and any new medical equipment you need. We will also help you schedule follow-up appointments.
• Preventing problems: We know that seeing a doctor or nurse practitioner close to where you live can help catch problems before they are serious enough to need the ER or hospital. Because of this we’ll help make sure your child receives important preventative care from a primary care physician or nurse practitioner. We will also make sure your primary care provider and specialists stay in communication with each other so everyone is up to date on your child’s care plan.
• Scheduling appointments: We can assist if you need help coordinating appointments for the same day or scheduling an appointment sooner than the one you have.

For parents and caregivers of children needing complex care, please visit the Children's Complex Care page for more information on services and provider options.
