Medical Services
We provide an extensive network of epilepsy medical services to ensure the best possible care for children and adults living with epilepsy.
Our Comprehensive Epilepsy Clinics and independent neurologists across the state offer a consistent program of medical management, tailored to meet the unique needs of our clients. Our medical program is specifically designed for uninsured clients with no other recourse for neurological care. During the intake process and annual recertification, we assess the client’s ability to pay a minimal fee based on a share of cost percentage. Household income is verified and compared with a sliding fee scale to determine financial responsibility, ensuring that services remain accessible to those in need.
Our Services Include:
Eligibility Screening:
We conduct thorough screenings to determine eligibility for our medical services, ensuring that those in need receive the appropriate care.
Initial Neurological Evaluation:
Our initial evaluations are designed to provide a comprehensive assessment of each client’s neurological health, forming the basis for a personalized treatment plan.
Ongoing Medical Follow-Ups:
Regular medical follow-ups are scheduled as necessary to monitor the client’s condition and adjust treatment plans as needed.
Blood Monitoring:
We perform regular blood tests to monitor body functions and levels of anticonvulsant drugs, ensuring that medication levels are optimal and safe.
Electrodiagnosis:
Baseline electroencephalogram (EEG) and other diagnostic procedures, such as MRI, CT scans, and DEXA scans, are conducted as medically indicated to provide a detailed understanding of each client’s condition.
Epilepsy Guidance and Education:
We offer comprehensive guidance and education on epilepsy management, empowering clients and their families with the knowledge they need to manage the condition effectively.
Medication Assistance:
Assistance with obtaining medications is available through various sources, including the DOH Pharmacy, Patient Assistance Programs (PAP), EAF Prescription Discount Card, and independent pharmaceutical providers offering special rates for EAF clients. We also work with online and local retail pharmacies that offer discounted prescription plans.
Miscellaneous Medical Services:
Our team assists with completing necessary medical forms for non-medical benefits, such as driver’s license applications and SSA forms, to ensure clients have access to all available resources.
Referrals to Other Medical Facilities:
We provide referrals to other medical facilities for services not available at EAF or for non-epilepsy related medical needs, ensuring comprehensive care for all health concerns.
