Advantage Health Care Provider, Inc., or simply “Advantage Health” is contracted by the State of Hawaii to assist with the placement of Intellectually & Developmentally Disabled (I/DD) and Elderly Clients in privately owned, licensed Residential Care Homes for 3, 5, or 8 Clients and to provide Quality Assurance Oversight. This is instead of placement into large Institutional Nursing Homes where pe
rsonalized care can’t be provided.
1. All clients are referred to Advantage Health by the State of Hawaii and licensed Residential Care Homes engaged by Advantage Health provide the required services pursuant to an Individual Service Plan.
2. The State of Hawaii licenses each of these Residential Care Homes (AFH, ARCH, E-ARCH, DC) pursuant to State Laws (HRS), requiring appropriate Credentialing, Licences, etc. In addition, each Residential Care Home, usually the owner, is
operated by a Primary Care Giver (PCG) who must meet strict
Credential Requirements, including Certification as a Registered
Nurse (RN) or Certified Nurse Aide (CNA), Identification
Requirements, Competency, and continued Competency
Requirements, Safety Clearance, Health Clearance, Current Security
(FBI) Clearance and Administrative Requirements such as Home
Owners Insurance, Car Insurance, Liability Insurance, GET License
and DOH License, and must enter into an Independent Contractor
Agreement with Advantage Health. Advantage Health provides Health Care Monitoring, such as the
monthly visit of each of its Clients, through its licensed RN Quality
Assurance Auditors/Health Care Consultants to determine if
proper care is provided in accordance with the Individual Service
Plans which are reviewed and/or revised with the Health Care Team
on an annual basis. Advantage Health provides its findings to the State of Hawaii,
including adverse event reports, as well as monthly and quarterly-
reports. Based on these Reports, Advantage Health and/or Case
Managers from the Department of Health will require and/or
prepare Corrective Action Plans to bring the Residential Care
Home in compliance or the Services in line with the Individual
Service Plan. Please call if you have any questions,
