In today's challenging funding landscape, social service organizations are being asked to do more with less -- while still meeting the growing needs of their communities.


But what if there was a sustainable way to increase your revenue while continuing your

mission-driven work?


Thanks to changes in reimbursement policies and the capabilities of platforms like Community CareLink, that opportunity is here.


A Game-Changer for Human Service Organizations


Many community-based organizations (CBOs), behavioral health providers, and social service

agencies are now eligible to bill Medicaid, Medicare, and even private insurance for services they already provide -- such as:


- Care coordination

- Case management

- Behavioral health support

- Housing navigation

- Social determinants of health (SDoH) interventions


With the right tools in place, these services can now be transformed into reimbursable activities.


Why Now? Medicaid and Medicare Are Embracing Whole-Person Care


Government payers are increasingly recognizing that addressing social needs leads to better health outcomes -- and lower long-term costs.


- Medicaid waivers and state innovation models are funding social services to reduce avoidable ER visits and hospitalizations.


- Medicare Advantage plans now offer supplemental benefits that cover non-medical services such as home support, transportation, and community care coordination.


- Private insurers are also partnering with CBOs to deliver SDoH-focused care as part of

value-based models.


This shift opens the door for agencies to participate in the health care ecosystem -- and get paid for the vital work they do every day.
