Hospice Care Management and Patient Outcomes

Course overview

Coordination of services throughout the length of stay, from admission through death and bereavement, is more highly regulated today than it ever has been. Scrutiny by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services finds gaps in care planning, coordinated management of services, and documentation. Hospices must make the shift for better managed and coordinated patient care within the case management model. In this course, you will learn about the case management model and the role of the case manager.
