You can add a spouse to your health plan, remove one, or choose new coverage within the special enrollment period.

Welcoming a new child is a major life event that allows you to add them to your health plan. You can also adjust to meet your family’s needs.

Problems That We Solve in the Healthcare System

From cost and access to transportation and mental health, Gloria Gates CARE is here to remove obstacles to better health.

Health Problem - Barrier to Entery

Barrier to Entry

High costs, lack of insurance, and limited awareness of available programs prevent many underserved individuals from accessing necessary healthcare.

We are accepting new patients every day and work to help uninsured individuals apply for health coverage.

Health Disparities

Health Disparities

Underserved communities face higher rates of chronic illness, untreated medical conditions, and preventable diseases due to inadequate access to care.

We call this Gaps of CARE. We make sure our CARE Advocates follow up with you, making sure you don’t miss an appointment again.

Transportation Challenges

Transportation Challenges

Many individuals struggle to reach healthcare offices due to geographic and logistical barriers.

Our CARE Advocates can find transportation resources available to you or you may qualify for Gloria Gates CARE transportation services.

Social Determinants of Health

Social Determinants of Health

Factors like food insecurity, unstable housing, and low income significantly impact individuals’ ability to prioritize and access healthcare.

The purpose of our CARE Advocates is to help identify if you have any of these issues and find other resources and support for you so you can focus on becoming healthier.

Limited Provider Availability

Limited Provider Availability

A shortage of healthcare providers in underserved areas leads to long wait times and reduce continuity of care.

That’s why at Gloria Gates CARE we have CARE Teams to support our doctors and not feel overwhelmed in meeting a “quota”. We prioritize listening and taking the necessary needed time for each appointment.

Mental Health Neglect

Mental Health Neglect

Lack of access to affordable mental health services leaves many without the support for their psychological well-being.

Which is why at Gloria Gates Care, we offer onsite mental health counseling and support when you become a Member.
