Measuring quality in medical case management programs. Abstract Text:

M G Henderson,A Collard,

Private insurers and health care providers alike currently offer medical case management programs as a means of containing costs and enhancing the quality of care for patients with high-cost illnesses or injuries. Since 1986, Brandeis University's Bigel Institute for Health Policy has been involved in a project to evaluate medical case management programs. The study found that such programs have become popular because of the perception that high-cost patients are typically handled inefficiently. The study also found that greater attention needs to be given to developing systematic ways to measure and monitor the quality of the case management process and its effect on outcomes.
