Chronic Care Management

What is Chronic Care Management (CCM)?

It is a new Medicare benefit that provides people with multiple chronic conditions additional support. At the center of the program is a comprehensive care plan, developed in collaboration with your health care team (doctor, nurse practitioner, nurses, staff), and updated monthly. Enhanced care coordination, a focus on your goals and quality of life in context of your conditions are a focus of the program. Over the last three years, this program has helped more than 500 community members with their health care needs and has reduced hospital admissions by 90%.

Availability

There is perhaps no group of people who can benefit from chronic care management more than people who would like to take an active role in their healthcare. If you are eligible for Medicare you may be eligible for Medicare’s new chronic care management program. People participating in the program often mention that they feel more connected to their healthcare and that they may receive more coordinated, goal-oriented care.

CCM could be right for you.

Ask your healthcare providers if you are a candidate for the program. If you have two or more chronic conditions, you may be eligible.

CCM partners with your care team.

We love helping people receive quality in-between visit care management. We partner with patients and providers in a collaborative, efficient, and friendly.

CCM also works with additional ECRMC programs to coordinate your care:
