We provide creative solutions to Children’s health
New Horizons Solutions™ provides healthcare management services that promote the health of children, adolescents, and their families. We mobilize and engage communities and explore models that financially secure the future of community-based health centers. New Horizons Solutions does this by using management expertise and applying proven technologies.
Our Health-e Kids Initiative provides access to health screenings. Our solutions are accomplished through conducting comprehensive exams based on federally mandated EPSDT (Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment) requirements for individuals ages 3-21, to include:
Comprehensive health history, including development/ behavioral screenings
Complete physical examinations
Vision, hearing and dental screenings
Immunization review
Appropriate laboratory tests as indicated by age, health history and examination findings
Health education and guidance
New Horizons Solutions™ exams are preventive examinations; we do not provide medical or dental treatment to children.
New Horizons Solutions™ Services are reimbursed through Medicaid programs. Therefore the services are provided at no cost to schools, parents, guardians or children.
Children are referred to their primary care provider or a specialist if a health issue or problem is detected.
If an urgent or serious problem is identified, New Horizons Solutions™ will immediately contact the parents or guardians and the school staff is notified.
