Our Case Management Team:We Care About Your Patients’ Health

Spring 2017

 

Neighborhood has a case management program for members who have very complex needs. This program is for members who experienced a critical event or diagnosis and require many resources as well as help navigating the health care system. Like Neighborhood’s other case management programs, this program focuses on the coordination of care, goal-setting and treatment.
