Wellcare Medicare

The recent AASC Conference in Indianapolis was a tremendous success, drawing nearly 1,000 attendees—primarily service coordinators—from across the country. Our Wellcare team had the privilege of sponsoring the event, providing a valuable opportunity to connect with American Association of Service Coordinators members and explore ways to support their communities. During our breakout session, we showcased three creative event displays designed to meet diverse community needs: -Arts & Crafts Table: Participants enjoyed coloring wooden magnets, highlighting a hands-on, engaging project for residents. -Games Table: Popular board games inspired ideas for fun and interactive social gatherings. -Chair Exercise Setup: A demonstration featuring exercise bands and a simple one-page workout guide emphasized accessible fitness activities for residents. We emphasized how these events could seamlessly integrate with the educational support we offer to communities. Our Community Relations Specialists, Jonathan Quann and Stefanie Morris, also had the honor of presenting the Innovative Community Program Award to Vadra Skinkle, a service coordinator in Syracuse who collaborates with us across 10 properties. It was a pleasure to celebrate her remarkable achievements. Additionally, Allie, Catherine, Michelle Missler (AASC CEO), and I led a well-received Q&A session, where we addressed questions about our services and shared strategies for building meaningful community partnerships. The session garnered enthusiastic feedback, with over 600 attendees completing our survey and expressing interest in further collaboration. This conference solidified our connection with AASC members, and I’m excited to see our partnerships continue to grow throughout AEP and into 2025.

Wellcare was proud to sponsor the Carolina Veterans Day Festival on November 9, 2024, celebrating and honoring our nation’s veterans. Organized by Veterans Bridge Home, this annual event has become a cornerstone for veterans and their families, offering a space for connection, recognition, and support. Over the past decade, Veterans Bridge Home has linked more than 18,000 veterans and their families to over 42,000 services and employment opportunities across 49 counties in North and South Carolina. This year’s festival welcomed over 1,000 attendees and featured community awards, a kids’ zone, and a Veterans Expo. The event brought together military-friendly companies, veteran-serving organizations, and families in a free, family-friendly environment that emphasized community and support. Wellcare’s sponsorship played a vital role in ensuring access to these resources, helping veterans and their families thrive as leaders in their communities. Through its partnership with Veterans Bridge Home, Wellcare is committed to creating a network of care that addresses the whole veteran, empowering them for long-term success.

With veteran suicide rates on the rise, Centene is continuing our support of the military community. “Be the One,” a collaboration with Wellcare Medicare and The American Legion, includes educational resources and other tools to help prevent a potential crisis. https://prn.to/4bAuD7E #MentalHealthAwareness #VeteranSupport

Mental health continues to be an important concern for our nation’s veterans and service members. The “Be the One” campaign was developed by our partners, The American Legion, to remove the stigma of reaching out for help. Michael “Rod” Rodriquez’s powerful message will be shared during today’s coverage of the Indianapolis 500 Indianapolis Motor Speedway on NBC.
