Rev DON 10/11/2017
What is Care Coordination and Transition Management?
Rev DON 10/11/2017
12
Over 40 definitions Deliberate organization of patient care activities between 2 or more
participants (including patients). Basically, care tasks that we normally would do for a patient in a
typical exchange or as a result of an encounter with the healthcare system
Gift wrapping all the nuances into one box Transition Management involves organization of patient care between
levels of care
What Does This Look Like?
Rev DON 10/11/2017

Referral management Closing care gaps Population health management Pre-visit planning Care team planning/meetings Transition management Education Community agency mapping Home health coordination Care planning Putting the pieces of care together for the patient

Why Care Coordination?
Rev DON 10/11/2017

Healthcare climate is changing Affordable care act (citizens have to be in charge of their healthcare costs). Payment changes for poor quality care and readmissions CPC and CPC+ (quality and efficiency measures)
Patients are changing Living longer with chronic diseases More options for healthcare Access to information has increased Expectations are rising
Healthcare costs Smallest group of patients cost the most amount of money High utilization, high cost
PCMH Cornerstone of medical home is coordinating care Reducing care fragmentation
