Our Health Care Plan
HSCSN is the contracted healthcare plan provider for the District of Columbia's Child and Adolescent Supplemental Security Income Program (CASSIP) for children and young adults. HSCSN provides complete care for children and young adults with special health care needs. As an enrollee, you will have access to quality health care services and benefits.
Family-Centered Care
As an enrollee, your child is assigned a care manager who will work alongside your child, family members, and providers to create a Care Coordination Plan. This plan will help guide your child's medical needs.
Preventative Care
We provide Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment (EPSDT) or HealthCheck from birth to 26 years of age. These check-ups help with the physical, mental, and developmental health of your child.
Highest Quality of Care
We know choosing a care provider is important. We have more than 2,000 providers in our network. We can help you choose a team of providers that is right for your child's needs.
Health and Family Support Programs
HSCSN enrollees and their family support systems have access to free programs and resources to help manage medical conditions and improve overall health and well-being.
Programs include fitness and nutrition classes, health management programs, and parent advocacy groups.
