Cultural Humility Resources

Buckeye Health Plan encourages our providers to engage in Cultural Humility trainings and education to promote positive interaction with diverse cultures.

All Buckeye Health Plan network providers are required to complete an annual Cultural Competency Training. If you don't have your own curriculum available in accordance with CMS requirements, please complete Buckeye Health Plan's Cultural Competency training at the link below.
