February is American Heart Month

Nearly 16 million people in the U.S. have coronary heart disease. Of those, nearly 200,000 are in Arkansas. American Heart Month is a time to focus on our heart health and to get local communities and organizations involved in raising awareness to prevent heart disease.

Learn more about what we're doing to raise heart health awareness in our recent blog post, What You Need to Know About Heart Disease. Follow us on Facebook, YouTube and LinkedIn for additional health tips and information.

QualChoice Members can also take advantage of our QCARE Healthy Heart Program, which uses evidence-based, nationally accepted practices and a personalized approach to assist members living with hypertension.*

Accessing Secure Email

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) requires us to make sure all communications with Protected Health Information (PHI) are secured. We use the Cisco Registered Envelope System, which detects PHI in the body of outgoing email and/or attachment(s), and encrypts the message and attachment(s). Learn more or get started with the system. 

It's Still Not Too Late to Get Your Flu Shot
