Navigators
PCHS offers the services of certified Navigators to help you and other
community members sign up for health insurance coverage through the Washington
Healthplanfinder™, free of charge. Trained and certified by the
Washington Health Benefit Exchange, our Navigators support you through

available for patients with unique cultural, linguistic, and accessibility
requirements, and other needs.
Medicare SHIBA

of the Insurance Commissioner to offer Statewide Health Insurance Benefit Advisor (SHIBA) services. SHIBA volunteers offer free, unbiased, and confidential assistance
with Medicare, helping you assess your coverage needs, determine your
eligibility, compare different Medicare plans, and enroll in the programs
that best meet your specific medical needs.
Community Health Workers
As key partners of PCHS’s care team, Community Health Workers help

and adopt healthy behaviors and lifestyles. They work to establish trusting
relationships with you, ensuring your health coverage benefits your medical
needs, in addition to the support and services that our community offers.
