Care Management Services
Chronic Care Management
The PrimeCare Care Teams have trained Nurses available by phone 24/7/365 to assist patients if they have health questions or concerns. The Care Team can access patient’s medical record and has open communication with physicians to ensure a continuity of care. The Care Team’s role is to assess and monitor patient’s medical condition by engaging with you and to provide education. Care Team check-ins help fill gaps in care and give patients an extra layer of enhanced chronic care management and care coordination. Patients struggling with chronic diseases, such as congestive heart failure, diabetes, AFib, hypertension, and COPD, have a better quality of life and control of their chronic illness with Care Team services. A recent case study determined Care Team Services reduced patients’ overall healthcare costs. (Source CMS.gov)
