QUOTE ATTRIBUTABLE TO MELANIE MATTHEWS, HIN EXECUTIVE VP AND COO:

Click here for Melanie Matthews's profile.

“Disease management has the potential to reduce the high costs of chronic care — especially for those with multiple conditions, which accounts for almost 70 percent of Medicare spending. With the right physician support, utilization of chronic care models instead of traditional 'siloed' approaches and incorporation of health IT, disease management organizations can find their place in the medical home and continue to deliver value."
