A Brief Overview Complex Care Managers are highly skilled, licensed healthcare professionals responsible for maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of health care interventions necessary for a patient to attain the optimal results from his or her plan of care. They are dedicated to patient and family centered care that values personal self-determination, manage multiple priorities, and engage in creative, compassionate, and ethical problem-solving. As a member of a multidisciplinary health care team, Complex Care Managers perform comprehensive assessments and develop treatment plans which integrate the medical, social, and financial issues that impact individual patients, families, and populations. Complex Care Managers are responsible for working collaboratively with all healthcare team members to develop and implement treatment plans that support the patient-centered plan of care for both individual patients and the service-line. Complex Care Managers act as consultants to the clinical team, service lines, and other departments regarding patient assessment and patient care and participate in program development and quality improvement initiatives. In their role, Complex Care Managers, apply evidence-based guidelines and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, influence, and direct the delivery and quality of patient care. Complex Care Managers are assigned to a group of patients by medical specialty, unit, or clinic, and some activities may differ depending on the needs of the population. Major responsibilities include coordinating all facets of a patient's admission/discharge or outpatient visit/follow-up; performing utilization review activities, including review of patient charts for timeliness of services as well as appropriate utilization of services; and ensuring optimum use of resources, service delivery, and compliance with external review agencies' requirements. A health-system case management program has as its primary goal to ensure the most appropriate use of services by patients and, toward that end, to avoid duplication and misuse of medical services, control costs by reducing inefficient services, and improve the effectiveness of care delivery.
