Reimbursement Strategies
for Employers of Community Health Workers

Free webinar on Oct. 13, 1-3 p.m. CST

Join us on Oct. 13 to learn how to use a new toolkit to enable health care and other community organizations to seek reimbursement from health payers for Community Health Workers.

Community Health Workers/Promotores de Salud (CHW/Ps) are essential members of a multi-disciplinary care team to help patients achieve favorable health outcomes. This new Toolkit provides guidance for how health care providers and community-based organizations that deploy CHW/P interventions can receive reimbursement for CHW/Ps in both the fee-for-service and value-based care environments.

The Toolkit is designed to provide the tools for CHW/P organizations to bill health payers for CHW/P interventions. The reimbursement pathways outlined in the Toolkit represent reimbursement opportunities for CHW/P interventions that exist broadly within the current health care market.
