Each Georgia Families 360˚ child is assigned to a regional Care Coordination Team (CCT) with a specified care manager. The CCT members are masters level staff, most of who hold a professional license to practice in his or her respective field. The CCT completes a Health Risk Screening (HRS) on each child to identify medical and/or behavioral needs. The CCT is responsible for coordinating the health components of the Comprehensive Child and Family Assessment (CCFA), including the initial physical assessment, dental screening, and trauma assessment. Care managers serve as primary partners for identifying and making referrals for needed services. They ensure that each child has an individualized care plan that addresses both physical and behavioral health needs. These managers will collaborate with community agencies to ensure appropriate services are provided in a timely manner.
