Health Passport
Overview
Superior’s Health Passport is a web-based, secure application built using core clinical and claims information to deliver relevant health-care information for STAR Health members, when and where it is needed.
Using Health Passport, providers can improve care coordination, eliminate waste and reduce errors by gaining a better understanding of a person’s medical history and health interactions.

*Note: The Health Passport is not an Electronic Medical Record. It will not contain ALL immunizations, visits, allergies, labs or medications, but rather only those that Superior is made aware of via claims and or state supplied data.
Contacts Module
The Contacts Module conveniently lists the foster child’s PCP, Medical Consenter(s), Caregiver, Caseworker Service Coordinator and Case Manager in one place. Keep in mind that a listed Caregiver is not always a Medical consenter. A contact must be listed as a Medical Consenter to make Medical decisions and there for may appear twice on this list, once as a Caregiver and once as a Medical consenter. Refer to the list to ensure the appropriate individual is contacted concerning member care.
