Health and Recovery Plans (HARPs)

Health and Recovery Plans  (HARPs) is a Medicaid managed care program. A Health Home Care manager will typically conduct an annual HCBS eligibility assessment. When eligibility is confirmed, the care manager will also develop a Person-Centered Plan of Care, and then assist in working with the individual in selecting an HCBS provider.

  • HARPs manage the Medicaid services for people who need them
  • HARPs also manage an enhanced benefit package of Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS).
  • HARPs provide enhanced care management for members to help them coordinate all their physical health, behavioral health and non-Medicaid support needs.
