IlliniCare is dedicated to building strong relationships with our community. We want to partner with you to achieve the same goal: ensuring a vulnerable population receives the quality healthcare and services they need.

We understand that community organizations play an important role for our members. Whether it is an agency advocating on behalf of the member, an organization that provides extra social services and supports, or a charity organization, all of these play an important role in the lives of our members and in our community.

Community Liaisons

At IlliniCare, we have a staff of Community Liaisons whose sole purpose is to work with organizations, agencies and advocates to answer questions, make presentations and create strong partnerships. If at any time you have a question about IlliniCare Health Plan, want to schedule an informational presentation, or want to work with us on a partnership, please feel free to contact one of the Community Liaisons below:

Community Stakeholders Committee

One of the main ways we partner with community organizations is through our Community Stakeholders Committee (CSC). This is comprised of important agencies in the communities we serve that deal directly with our members. During these committee meetings, we receive valuable feedback about the program, the services we are providing, and how we can improve. If you are interested in joining our Community Stakeholders Committee, please contact a Community Liaison.
