The Warrior Navigation and Assistance Program Helps Wounded Warriors & Their Families

Living with a traumatic injury or illness can be difficult. These catastrophic conditions not only negatively impact the affected warriors, but also their family members. That is why Humana Military Healthcare Services, Inc. introduced the Warrior Navigation and Assistance Program (WNAP) to support injured or ill active duty service members and activated National Guard and Reserve members and their families.

The WNAP offers information and guidance to wounded warriors and their families who are navigating the Military Health System (MHS) to receive care, and assists those who are in transition from the MHS to the civilian health care system. Injured or ill warriors and their family members receive person-to-person guidance and access to this advocacy unit, which is specially trained to address the unique challenges that many wounded warriors face.

One example of the excellent services the WNAP provides is the case of a 40-year-old Naval reservist who fell off a tank while deployed and injured his neck, shoulder and back. After returning to the United States and spending 12 months in a Naval hospital, WNAP coordinated the transition of treatment, enrollment and billing for his return home. The WNAP also arranged for transportation to and from his new rehabilitation facility and located community resources to provide the service member with a custom wheelchair and much-needed home modifications.

Call the WNAP’s toll-free number at 1-888-4GO-WNAP (1-888-446-9627) or visit Humana Military's WNAP section if you or a loved one is in need of these services.
