Post-discharge meals can help to keep you healthy
After an inpatient stay in a hospital or skilled nursing facility, it may take a while for things to feel “back to normal” again. We at Community Health Plan of Washington (CHPW) want your recovery to be as smooth as possible.
Our Post-Discharge Meals benefit delivers meals to your door at no cost to you after you return home from the hospital. These meals are prepared by professional chefs. They are healthy, filling, tailored to your medical needs, and easy to prepare.
This benefit includes:
- 2 meals per day for up to 14 days after your stay in a hospital or skilled nursing facility
- This benefit can be used up to 6 times per calendar year

Did you know that certain prescription medicines are available as a 90-day supply? Medicine that you take on a long-term basis to manage your health is called a “maintenance drug.” A 90-day supply makes it easier to keep taking the medicine you need to feel your best. You may also be eligible to receive your long-term medications through free home delivery.
