Other Services

After-Hours Nurse Services
At Grace Health, we understand that you, your children or other family members get sick in the evenings and on weekends. That’s why we offer nursing services 24 hours a day through Team Health Medical Call Center. The nurse can give you advice about how to take care of yourself at home, or tell you if you need an appointment or need to be seen in the Emergency Room.

Certified Application Counselors
You may be eligible for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act and Grace Health can assist you in determining if you qualify and what qualified health plan is best for you. We help many of our patients create a “Marketplace” account and then help them navigate the application process by answering questions regarding the health plans they qualify for.

Community Health Workers / Resource Specialists
Our Community Health Workers and Resources Specialists can help connect you to local resources and navigate programs for items such as food, transportation, housing, prescriptions, and other basic needs.

Lab Services
At Grace Health, we offer lab services through Bronson Battle Creek.  This lab is able to perform immediate onsite testing for you so that you do not need to make another stop to have your blood work done.  At our Albion site, we off similar lab services through Oaklawn Hospital.

Prescription Assistance
As a Grace Health patient, you may obtain your prescriptions through the sliding fee discount plan if you are uninsured.  For those with insurance, our Prior Authorization Specialists can assist.  We also help connect our patients to prescription assistance programs, such as the Prescription Drug Access Program or Senior Millage Funding, to those who qualify.

Managed Care Services
We connect our Grace Health patients to other health care providers so that you will get those additional services and referrals as needed and that they are covered by a variety of health plans.

Medical Records
Grace Health organizes and maintains critical information in patient files to make sure that your medical care is consistent and of the highest quality. We add all medical reports (visits with physicians, treatments, etc.) to the Electronic Health Record (EHR) for your immediate viewing through our confidential patient portal on our website as well as reviews by the providers.

At Grace Health, we are sensitive to the private nature of your and all our patients’ medical records. We take steps to make sure that your records are kept confidential and secure. Medical information is not released without your written permission on our authorization form. Copies of records for other health care providers are made free of charge. We do charge for copies made for your own personal records. We ask for a separate authorization for each request.
