HIN Publishes Case Management Metrics: Charting Care Coordination Across the Continuum


case management metrics
The leading publisher of case management announces the publication of "Case Management Metrics: Charting Care Coordination Across the Continuum" exclusive data that charts case managers' growing influence and contributions in the healthcare industry.




September 1, 2011

SEA GIRT, NJ, USA — Case management has been identified as a key driver in value-based healthcare delivery as well as a cornerstone of accountable care. 2011 market research by the Healthcare Intelligence Network found that more than 90 percent of survey respondents are using case managers to help identify and manage high-risk patients and reduce avoidable utilization of services.

But exactly where along the healthcare continuum are case managers positioned, and where is their impact felt most acutely? The newest case management publication from the Healthcare Intelligence Network, Case Management Metrics: Charting Care Coordination Across the Continuum, dives deep into the research to identify case managers' impact in 10 key areas, including patient education and outreach, medication adherence and disease management.
