Company History and Experience
NHCS provides services throughout Minnesota. Founded in May 2001, we are a part of a unique family of organizations that serves individuals with disabilities and the elderly in Minnesota. Orion ISO was one of the first providers of self-directed services in Minnesota. We understand that when an individual or family member has a disability, they should receive the best services possible no matter where they reside. The ability to keep loved ones at home, to hire family, friends and neighbors, and to “manage” the services independently make self-directed services an excellent option.
Our founder, Marya Hage, created a related company, Meridian Services, to help serve those with disabilities. We also provide financial management services nationally via our related organization, Morning Sun Financial Services. Our mission is to provide the highest quality of services possible.
NHCS services are user friendly, straightforward and personal. Our role is to relieve families of administrative stress so they can focus on what’s important: providing the best possible care for their loved one. Our coordinators meet face-to-face with those they serve, wherever in the state they may live.
Our diverse and talented team of employees brings experience in the fields of:
- Accounting
- Finance
- Human Resources
- Human Services
- Education
Our customer service philosophy is committed to meeting your individual needs. We accept all enrollment paperwork, timesheets, and reimbursement requests electronically or through the use of mail or fax. We believe this philosophy makes self-directed services easier to use.
