V Fee
for Service provides on an annual basis, approximately $1.3 million of
medical services to women and children. The Coalition has the
upper 26 counties of Texas and Bailey and Hale counties involved in
this program. Title V services are limited in scope to include prenatal
care, child health, family planning, and dysplasia services to
non-Medicaid eligible women and children under 185% of federal poverty
level. Services are provided in clinical settings only with the
exception of tubal ligations for sterilization. Emphasis is placed on
well child exams and keeping immunizations current. By providing
services in a clinical setting only, this population is encouraged to
establish a medical home in their own community. Services are provided
by physicians and nurse practitioners in private clinic settings as
well as those managed by a local hospital district.
