Chronic Care Management (CCM) in Utah
What is chronic care management?
Chronic care management (CCM) is a support service that offers coverage for patients diagnosed with two or more chronic conditions, allowing for an ongoing relationship with their individual medical care team. It involves developing a comprehensive care plan, interactive remote communication and management (usually over the phone), medication management strategies, and coordination of care between providers.
Chronic care management is offered at Utah Gastroenterology and is beneficial for individuals as it pertains to ongoing support for their health and wellness. It also promotes increased access to the proper medical resources, enhanced communication with care team members, fewer ER visits and hospital stays or readmissions, and greater participation in the patient's individual healthcare.
