Great River Health is a Champion of Coverage Organization and a Certified-application Counselor Organization by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. We are also a Presumptive Medicaid Organization, meaning we can expedite the Medicaid enrollment process and provide temporary Medicaid coverage to eligible patients.
