The CHR program is a non-emergency program. The CHR program is not a transportation entity. Why do we require home visits when you request services from the CHR Program? The CHR will provide a needs assessment in the home of an individual during their visit. CHR's will request personal information from an individual such as: income verification, Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, Disability, and personal medical history. Personal information obtained from the patient will be an advantage in our advocacy efforts, to provide quality services for our tribal citizens.
