REGISTER HERE Case management is a growing health care profession, with a presence in every health delivery setting. Professionals moving to case management positions may or may not have access to adequate orientation and training. They often ‘learn on the job’ and are not exposed to knowledge and skills that advance the practice of case management. CMSA is filling this gap with a boot camp offering for case managers looking to advance their skills and practice. If you have been a case manager for five years or less, are looking to change your area of practice, or advance professional growth, this course is for you! Boot camp will not be hours of PowerPoint slides and lectures, but interactive exercises, activities, and case studies that will provide real-life scenarios and practical application. You will leave this course prepared to take on new challenges. Objectives: Describe ethical practices expected of all case managers. Identify the various forms of health care reimbursement and requirements for coordination of benefits. Differentiate the various levels of care and reimbursement for those who currently or who have served in the military. List the multiple practice settings available for case managers and distinguish the skill sets required for those […]

REGISTER HERE Case managers are at the forefront of a patient’s transition across the healthcare continuum. There are many challenges we encounter within our complex medical and social cases compounded by a patient's inability to access healthcare resources, make healthcare decisions due to cultural influences and the unpreparedness of their caregivers to provide support. The work of a case manager is often like a puzzle requiring innovative and creative solutions to successfully transition patients to next level of care. This conference will provide you with techniques to manage a complex medical case, and offer an important understanding of how to assess capacity for decision making by the patient.   Further discussion explains an understanding on how a patient and their family’s cultural spirituality can impact their health, care choices and ultimately the care delivery.   Lastly, the discussion emphasizes the necessity to assess the caregiver, and to assure the optimal level of care for the patient within the care plan.  We will equip you with the practical techniques, tools, and strategies for effectively managing your cases. You will gain a comprehensive understanding of capacity assessment in healthcare decision-making and learn to consider the social determinants of health, culture, spirituality, and a caregivers’ need for […]

Register Here High Medical Complexity patients are individuals who survive a life-threatening illness or injury with or without multiple, co-morbid conditions who are debilitated and dependent on intense medical care for a longer period of time. Critical illness recovery care follows acute intensive care and is provided using a multidisciplinary, system/organ preservation and conservation treatment approach. Referral timing is critical when navigating patients through the continuum of care and the transition to the next level of care. Getting the right patient in the right level of care at the right time is critical to throughput, to optimize patient outcomes and maximum recoverability. Learning Objectives: Summarize critical illness recovery care and how it is positioned on the continuum of care. Define high medical complexity conditions. Compare the critical illness recovery treatment approach and how it differs from acute illness/injury recovery. Demonstrate how referral timing is critical to optimize outcomes and recoverability when transitioning patients to critical illness recovery.
