MHP-10698
Brainstorming
Case #1: Karine Romero, Intermountain PCH - Baby boy with
SMA Type I, born to a mom from Mongolia on a student (now work) Visa. She has to go back to Mongolia in October. The baby is responding to the transfusions, the best outcome would be for them to stay. Gina: there is an immigration packet from National Family Voices. Heidi mentioned immigration organizations, too: US Citizenship and Immigration Services, Catholic Community Services, Asian Association of Utah. Refugee coordinator (Anna) at the U's Redwood Clinic may be able to help, too. Karine has utilized the Immigration office. Needs any help to be pro bono. Gabi: the International Rescue Committee also has immigration help. The family has insurance through SelectHealth. Pat Rowe knows about the situation. Jade Porter can help too (the family has Healthy U as their back up).
Update
: George Laub, TriCounty Health - George has signed up to be part of the COVID Task Force Tracking Team (when they see some cases, none yet.) Also helping answer phones so their secretary can go outside their clinic with a test kit when necessary. (Thank you, George!)
Update:
Eric Christensen - Integrated Services Program.
ISP
has halted direct clinical services right now. Hard to take care of the testing pieces because it's almost impossible to diagnose autism over telehealth. Vanderbilt is trying to create a remote testing modality, uses items in the house, gets help from the parents. Non-traditional ways of testing, diagnosis may be able to be standardized. ISP is trying to be in more of a supportive role, reaching out to families about how they are doing. The Bureau of CSHCN is contacting all the families they serve, learning about the holes, closing the gaps, getting qualitative data.
MHP 23190

Medical Home Portal Custom Service Provider Lists -
Mindy Tueller
We are excited to show you an improved MHP Custom Service Provider Lists tool! You can now more easily than ever
- create your own list of local providers from scratch, name it and give it a description
- make it shareable or private
- share it by copying and sending the URL
- save it as a PDF to print or email that way (PDFs can include notes that won't be saved in the online list)
- copy another list and make it your own
- rest assured that your list will stay up to date
If you send a list URL to someone without a Portal account, they can view the list. If the want to modify it, they will need to register or login (which is very quick to do).
Please see our
Help with Lists page for information on how to do all of this. If you have questions, please let Mindy know. If you want a one-on-one tutorial, we are happy to provide it! And we want your feedback so we can keep improving this tool!

We’ll be emailing you early next week to request feedback about how we should list services for large organizations and agencies in the
Utah Services Directory
. Thank you for taking a few minutes to help us figure out what will be best for you!
