Depending on your insurance options, you may or may not have direct access to a local Hemophilia Treatment Center (HTC). Many times, individuals assume they do not have access through their insurance, but upon further investigation, find that they do indeed have the appropriate medical coverage to be seen at an HTC.

Many insurance carriers will allow you to be seen at an HTC for a yearly comprehensive visit once they see the overall benefits to you or your loved one with a bleeding disorder. It has been shown that the comprehensive health management and prevention services offered by the HTC helps reduce complications related to Hemophilia, therefore improving the quality of life for those affected and reducing long term medical expenses.

If you find that you truly do not have access to an HTC, call our Foundation and talk to our Community Health Advocate. She will be glad to assist you in either acquiring access to a local HTC or in finding alternative quality medical care.

If transportation is an issue please let us know! As the primary advocacy agency serving the bleeding disorders community, we strongly believe that transportation should not be a barrier to getting the appropriate treatment. We will either help you directly, by providing funds for a taxi service, or we will help you to contact a non-profit agency in your area that provide the necessary transportation.
