  Pinal/Gila Long Term Care (P/GLTC) is an enterprise fund of Pinal County government and operates under the authority of the Pinal County Board of Supervisors. P/GLTC administers two main programs:
 
  1. A long term care managed care program in Pinal County and Gila County, and
  2. A social model, home support program through our Community Programs Department

 LONG TERM CARE SERVICES

P/GLTC is an Arizona Long Term Care System (ALTCS) health plan. ALTCS is the State Medicaid program under the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS) that funds this program. P/GLTC has been the ALTCS health plan in Pinal County since 1989 and in Gila County since 2001.

Through a large network of physicians, facilities, home care and ancillary providers, P/GLTC Case Managers, along with input from family and members, design care plans and arrange the health care for frail elderly and physically disabled enrollees of the ALTCS program. We offer numerous Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) including assisted living, attendant and personal care and other home-based services designed to help consumers live at home for as long as possible. Some of the other available services include home delivered meals, behavioral health, home health nursing, hospitalization, and if necessary, nursing home services.

 COMMUNITY PROGRAMS

P/GTLC partners with Pinal-Gila Council for Senior Citizens and Ryan White, Title I to administer the Caregiver Support, and SMILE (Services Make Independent Living Easier) programs.

The Caregiver Support program provides assistance and arranges respite for those who provide direct care to others.

SMILE is a case management program for the frail elderly/physically disabled population (non-ALTCS).
