Member Rights & Responsibilities

As a Vaya Health member, you are guaranteed certain rights by law. Vaya network providers must respect your rights at all times, provide you with continual education regarding your rights and support you in exercising your rights to the fullest extent possible.

Member Handbook

Vaya’s member handbook explains what to do in a crisis, what services may be available under your eligibility and how to access healthcare services. It also includes information on how Vaya can help you pursue recovery, greater community integration, or other life goals.

You can review your member rights and responsibilities in the handbook, including how to report concerns, file an appeal or a grievance, prepare a crisis plan or advance directive, participate in person-centered planning or report fraud or abuse.

Your Voice Matters

We want to hear from our communities—including you! Our CFAC and HRC groups help us decide what’s important to the people we serve. If you’re passionate about improving the behavioral health care system, consider joining a committee. 

Consumer and Family Advisory Committee (CFAC)

The Vaya CFAC helps ensure that people receiving services are involved in our oversight, planning and operational committees. It has members who represent each county we serve.

 A membership application can be found here

Human Rights Committee (HRC)

Vaya’s HRC helps ensure the protection of our members’ human rights, civil rights and client rights. They are responsible for reviewing information about alleged rights violations, grievances, the use of restrictive interventions or claims that needed services were not provided. 

A membership application can be found here. 

Microenterprise Directory

Join Vaya Health in supporting local businesses and member employment. Many of our Vaya members with intellectual/developmental disabilities run their own microenterprises, or small businesses, that give them income, independence, and a purpose.

View our Microenterprise Directory for a list of member businesses and their stories.
