GT’s Commitment to Agency Partners and Managed Care Organizations
At GT Independence, we work hard to make your work easier.
We’re here to provide the right financial management services (FMS), tools, and resources that give you all the data and information you need to make informed decisions. From our customized suite of reporting tools to knowledgeable customer service support, we are prepared to help you every step of the way.
Our products and services were designed with input from everyone involved in self-direction. That includes agencies, managed care organizations, case managers, caregivers, and of course, participants.
For GT, people are at the center of everything we do, and the only thing we do is self-direction.
Helping Organizations Support Self-Direction
Custom Reporting Through the GT Portal
GT Portal is a secure online tool that serves as your customized reporting suite. Access budget, utilization, and authorization reports with our real-time data and information, including Medicaid figures. Survey an entire program, or dig deep into an individual participant’s situation. Customize your dashboard to keep track of elements most relevant to you. And, keep your participants and caregivers up-to-date by working with GT to send out notifications.

We Speak Your Language
GT serves a diverse group of people, and that fact is reflected in our multilingual customer service team. Our team includes people fluent in English and Spanish, but we offer more.
