Improving Accessibility
Oklahoma Complete Health continuously works to remove barriers that prevent our members from accessing quality healthcare. Our responsibility is to make it simple for our members to get well, stay well and be well.
To continue this mission, Oklahoma Complete Care has launched a Provider Accessibility Initiative (PAI). The goal of the PAI is to improve member access and health outcomes by increasing the percentage of practitioner locations and services in our network that meet the minimum federal and state disability access standards.
