High-Risk Case Identification for Use in Comprehensive Complex Care Management

High-Risk Case Identification for Use in Comprehensive Complex Care Management

Because patients with multiple chronic conditions require proactive, coordinated care management to effectively manage numerous health conditions comprehensively and not each as a discrete problem, the study highlighted in this article, published by Population Health Management, intended to develop a patient selection process for multi-morbid care management that could:

• accurately identify patients at-risk for future high costs and
• assure that those selected can clinically benefit from proactive care management. 

The ACG System was used to accurately select multi-morbid patients for participation in proactive care management, even after some of the highest risk patients are excluded because of prior clinical considerations.
