Women’s Health

Staying healthy and well is one of the most important things women can do for themselves and for their loved ones, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Here are some ways women can put their health first:

 

Stay Active

Regular exercise can help women boost their mood, maintain a healthy weight, and improve sleep. It also lowers risk for heart disease, breast cancer, stroke, and type 2 diabetes. Women should speak with their doctor about what type of exercise is right for them.

Eat Healthy
Eating healthy can help women improve their health and prevent diseases. Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, as well as lean meats, poultry, fish, beans, eggs, and nuts. Avoid having too much sodium, sugar, cholesterol, saturated fats, and trans fats.
Get Regular Checkups
Regular checkups and wellness exams help women increase their chances of living a longer, healthier life. Women should check with their primary care provider about the care and screenings they need, and whether they should schedule an in-person or telehealth appointment.

Follow Recommended Screenings
Maintain Healthy Levels
A well-rounded diet and regular exercise can help keep women’s blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar at healthy levels. Women should talk to their primary care provider or heart specialist about safely reducing their risk and setting goals for a healthier heart.
Avoid Smoking
Smoking or using tobacco products greatly increases women’s risk of heart disease. Women who want to quit should speak to their primary care provider for help and to see if there are medications or nicotine replacement products that are right for them. Non-smokers who have high blood pressure or high blood cholesterol also have a greater risk of developing heart disease when they’re exposed to secondhand smoke.

HHAeXchange & Fidelis Care Partnership (Updated)
11/23/2021 • Posted by Provider Relations

As part of the approach for the 21st Century Cures Act, Fidelis Care has partnered with homecare management solutions vendor HHAeXchange to implement Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) for Personal Care Services. The implementation date of the program for all providers working with our MLTC, MAP, DUAL, HARP, and Medicaid members is December 20th, 2021.

Through the HHAeXchange platform, users will be able to receive new members and authorizations from Fidelis Care, as well as schedule and confirm visits for those members. The HHAeXchange platform offers a robust agency management solution that can help streamline and automate time-consuming agency functions including placement, scheduling, compliance, and billing of services.

The HHAeXchange Portal provides a direct connection from homecare agencies to Fidelis Care for:

  • Electronic case placement, authorizations, plan of care management and entering confirmed visits
  • Free EVV solution for time & attendance and duty tracking
  • Electronic billing along with pre-billing review

Agencies currently using HHAeXchange will be able to continue using HHAeXchange, utilizing the system’s Linked Contract functionality. Agencies currently using another 3rd Party EVV Solution: authorization data will become available in the HHAeXchange Portal (rather than coming by fax). Schedule and visit data will be imported from your 3rd party system into HHAeXchange. Please work with your EVV Vendor to determine requirements to set up this interface.

Agencies not currently using HHAeXchange: You will obtain access to the HHAeXchange Portal in order to receive authorizations and submit claims/invoice data.

HHAeXchange has scheduled Provider Information Sessions for new & existing users. Details on registration can be found at the following link under the “Info Sessions” topic: https://hhaexchange.com/fideliscare/.
