Private care managers assist patients who have complex care needs such as coordination of multi-specialty appointments, medication management, and transportation.
Working with a patient who is leaving against medical advice (LAMA) can be difficult. Although the physician responsible for the patient’s medical care is primarily involved in this situation, discharge planners frequently become involved when the patient has continuing care needs.
One setting alone doesn’t possess all the services required to fulfill a patient’s needs. Employees at each setting have different talents, skills, and knowledge needed to achieve all the care needs.
