LANSING, Mich. - The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is seeking proposals for eligible agencies to expand and enhance clinical services for people who have sickle cell disease.

Eligible applicants must be existing hematology or hematology/oncology clinics working under a Michigan hospital or medical school. They must be enrolled as Michigan Medicaid providers and comply with Medicaid policy. They also must accept all Medicaid, MI Child, Healthy Michigan Plan and Children's Special Health Care Services (CSHCS) patients and refer potentially eligible patients for CSHCS eligibility determination.
