So as we kind of shift gears here, Becky, what are the different components of the case management process in medicine? Can you outline that for us?
5:27
Sure.
5:28
So the case management process is well-known, well-established, based on CMSA standards of practice, which have been around since 1991.

And the process is identification of patients who will benefit most from intervention, engagement with the patient and the patient's family, their caregivers, to establish a trusted relationship.
5:50
There's the assessment process, and it's not just assessing physical health.
5:54
It's looking at mental health needs, social needs, and health system needs.
5:59
And then based on the assessment and the physician's prescribed treatment, a care plan with targeted goals should be developed, shared with and developed with the patient and the caregiver, and then looking for those interventions that are going to help achieve those goals, whatever that may be.
