Program Overview

RightCare from Scott and White Health Plan provides STAR Medicaid services in the Medicaid Rural Service Area – Central Texas. STAR is managed care Medicaid. You pick a medical plan that provides your Medicaid services and a main doctor that is your point of contact for Medicaid services. In addition to your main doctor, each plan has a large group of specialists, therapists, clinics, and hospitals that can provide you with Medicaid services.

Texas Health and Human Service - Texas STAR

Background

Scott and White Health Plan and Insurance Company of Scott and White (SWHP) started operations in January 1982 as a nonprofit Health Maintenance Organization. Since then, our mission has been: "To provide the most personalized, comprehensive, highest quality health care, enhanced by medical education and research." SWHP was first called Centroplex Health Plan, and our service area was focused primarily in Bell and Coryell counties. Since then, we've grown our membership to more than 240,000 members and our service area to 80 counties in the Central, East, North, and West Texas regions. New insurance plans, including self-insured plans, a Medicare prescription plan, and a Medicaid plan, have been introduced to meet the needs of members, employers, and the community.
