Case Management
Case management programs are usually considered to be an element of the Quality Assurance Program. However, some health care professionals believe that they may be more interested in managing costs rather than quality of care. Considering this issue please respond to the following questions in a 4- to 6-page paper:
1. Do you believe that case management programs are more concerned with reducing costs or improving the quality of care? Please justify your position.
2. Generally discuss the limitations of a typical case management program and their strengths.
3. Do you believe that case management programs will become a medical program necessity in the future? Justify your position.
4. In your opinion, how important are "gatekeepers" to the case management process?
For Case Studies and SLP papers:
1. Be sure your work is on topic.
2. Note the minimum page length and stick with it.
3. Write a strong analysis and is supported with citations and references of at least 2 and preferably more academic/scholarly sources from ProQuest or another library database. Add information from other sources like books or .edu, .org, or .gov websites.
4. Never use .com sources.
