OKLAHOMA CAPITOL -- The ADvantage Program has recently moved from the Long-Term Care Authority of Tulsa to the Oklahoma Department of Human Services-Aging Services Division. With this recent change, which will be completed Oct. 31, 2008, contact numbers for the ADvantage Program have changed.
Please note the following changes effective immediately:

ADvantage main telephone number has changed from (918) 583-3336 to (918) 933-4900.

In addition, the following ADvantage fax numbers have changed effective immediately:

The ADvantage Program of the Home-and Community-Based Services Unit provides Medicaid services to help people stay at home instead of going to a nursing home. The program assists frail elders and adults who have physical disabilities but not children or persons with mental retardation.

Since the ADvantage Program is a Medicaid program, consumers must first qualify to receive services. For more information about ADvantage, call (918) 993-4900 or visit us online at /content/sok-wcm/en/okdhs​.
