The role of the case management leadership is one of the most challenging, complex positions in any healthcare setting. Case management leaders are expected to have a comprehensive skill set ranging from clinical expertise to reimbursement. Additionally, case management leaders need strong management skills to leverage their relationship with interdisciplinary departments and communicate effectively with their executive team. These skills are critical for managing staff, developing their budgets, ensuring compliance with state and federal regulations, creating transitional care plans, and implementing value-based reimbursement models.
This two-part series will focus on the role of case management leadership. Our experts will provide leadership best practices with operational strategies for each practice and review the latest information leaders must know to produce optimal outcomes. What happens in case management outcomes today will impact value-based reimbursement penalties in the future.
