Health coaching helps those who have behavioral or chronic medical conditions. Coaching is available to adult State Health Plan members at no cost. You can learn how to manage your symptoms, as well as delay or even prevent many of the complications of these conditions.
BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina identifies participants by reviewing medical, pharmacy and lab claims. You are automatically enrolled if you are someone who could benefit from one of the programs. However, the programs are voluntary, and you can opt out at any time. You may also self-enroll in one or more of the available health coaching programs.
To self-enroll, call BlueCross at 855.838.5897.
