"The only way to proactively identify and manage members with rising risk is by connecting care teams with real time data, analytics, and predictive models."

In this episode, we explore the origins of care management, reactive versus proactive models of care, ways to coordinate care with real time data, practical uses for data and analytics for diagnosis and treatment, as well as the ideal care management dashboards for frontline healthcare workers, managers and directors of care management programs.
