Public pressure is mounting for dramatic improvement in the efficiency, effectiveness and quality of health and human services in the United States. Spending continues to grow at a substantial rate, while evidence of serious deficiencies in the quality of care mounts. Government agencies, provider organizations, health plans and employers are developing and implementing a range of strategies to improve quality and control costs. One such strategy is care management.

The Care Management framework incorporates assessment, risk management, identification of resources, planning, service facilitation and coordination, education, environmental optimization, advocacy, monitoring and evaluation.

Existing programs are diverse, but share a common goal — identify and engage clients with chronic or high cost conditions who will benefit from improved self-management and evidence-based treatment. This is particularly true for older adults looking to “age-in-place” and remain independent in their homes.

Care management programs apply systems, science, incentives, and information. But the service “system” is highly fragmented and providers do not share information easily. Envision Consulting seeks is to advance service delivery though strategic program planning and deployment, continuous improvement, innovative technology and effective education of all stakeholders.
