A Hybrid Embedded Case Management Model
A hybrid embedded case management model at Sentara Medical Group is having more success in managing high-cost, high-utilization patients than a pure embedded in the primary care practice model.
After moving the embedded case managers out of the practice full-time in 2012, Sentara reported positive returns from the program and improved efficiency of the case managers. The case managers do spend time in the practice, but are also managing care through other touch points including hospital stays, in the home, at office visits and via telephonic and Skype contacts.
During A Hybrid Embedded Case Management Model: Sentara Medical Group's Approach, a 45-minute webinar on July 31st, Mary M. Morin, RN, NEA-BC, RN-BC, nurse executive with Sentara Medical Group, will share the details on why Sentara opted for a hybrid embedded case management model and the impact the model is having on its highest risk population.
