About

We love school nurses.
School nurses are the most critical ally for children with chronic conditions, holding a special position to understand health needs and advocate for the family across health and education systems.

Why we exist.
Established in 2017, the School Nurse Link program connects public, charter and private schools with the resources offered by Medicaid health plans in Missouri.  It was created to support the faithful dedication of school nurses to the well-being of children and families.  Through case management and other programs, health plans can provide time-saving services to school nurses and enhanced benefits to families.  Linkages between schools and health plans offer much potential to improve health status and the overall care experience for children and families. 

Leadership
School Nurse Link is guided by a leadership council comprised of representatives from:
  • Coordinated School Health Program
  • Missouri Asthma Prevention and Control Program
  • Missouri School Boards’ Association
  • Missouri Primary Care Association
  • Missouri Association of School Nurses
  • MO HealthNet
  • Home State Health
  • Missouri Care/Wellcare
  • United Healthcare

Children have a right to be healthy and ready to learn.  
School nurses are essential in making this right real.  
We are committed to linking school nurses and children
