Q16:

Does the inTransition coach identify and handle the transition to the gaining provider?

A:

Our inTransition coaches encourage service members/veterans to establish their initial appointment with the gaining provider. If an appointment with a gaining provider has been established at referral, the coach and service member/veteran work together to prepare the service member/veteran for the first appointment and deal with any issues that may impact follow-through and engagement with the new provider. If the gaining provider has not been identified, the coaching staff researches and helps the service member/veteran understand the transition process of the gaining organization and, if appropriate, assists the service member/veteran in making an appointment at the gaining organization.

Q17:

Does the inTransition coach serve as a case manager if the service member/veteran has complex needs?

A:

No. Our inTransition coaches are not intended to replace or supplant the functions of case managers assigned to complex cases. The inTransition program is a coaching program that provides service members/veterans with education, expert information and support.

Q19:

Is the inTransition program a "call center?"

A:
