This practical, "hands-on" guide includes vital information every
case manager and administrator of a case management program need to
be successful. A useful resource for working in the changing face
of healthcare, it addresses case managers in all settings with an
emphasis on nurse case managers and their role in providing patient
care and containing costs. Focusing on the "nuts and bolts" aspects
of case management, it discusses the operations of case management
programs based on the authors' first hand experiences. Case
Management Tip boxes in each chapter highlight important tips and
provide easy access to this information. Case studies in several
chapters address possible situations the case manager may confront
along with the most effective solutions. Key points at the end of
each chapter summarize pertinent information. Appendices provide
extensive examples of forms and multi-disciplinary action plans
used in various healthcare settings. Six new chapters have been
added on Utilization Management (Chapter 5), Transitional Planning
(Chapter 6), Disease Management (Chapter 7), Application of Legal
Concepts in Case Management Practice (Chapter 17), Ethical Issues
in Case Management (Chapter 18), and Internet Resources and Case
Management (Chapter 19). Content on Financial Reimbursement Systems
has been expanded to cover community case management issues such as
the new community reimbursement systems for ambulatory, home, and
long-term care. Information on community-based models is covered in
more detail in response to growth in this area - including managed
care, telephonic, rehabilitation, sub-acute, and long-term and
emergency department case management. The chapter on Skills for
Successful Case Management has been expanded to include a
discussion of additional skills such as clinical reasoning,
cost-effectiveness, and negotiation among others. Content on
Developing Case Management Plans has been updated to include more
content on community plans and a detailed review of the types of
case management plans, including algorithms. The chapter on Quality
Patient Care has been updated to include an historical review,
minimum data sets, report cards, and the relationships between
outcomes and quality. Quality indicators and organizations across
the continuum are included. Appendices have been expanded to
include community-based case management plans, home care plans, and
long term care plans.
