Care Management Tracking Software
The CMT is usually implemented in a standalone
Access database. It is not necessary to use the CMT to implement Care
Management Plus; however, most electronic medical records do not include
all the key functions that are available in the CMT. The Care Manager
Tracking Database enables the Care Manager to:
- Flexibly plan chronic care tasks such as
- classes
- lab work
- referrals
- Schedule visits and phone calls
- Create reminder lists based on patient criteria
(tickler lists) which facilitates patient contact and documentation
of adherence to care plan
- Manage workflow and evaluate efficiency of
resource use
The CMT Access database is not only a valuable
clinical tool for the Care Managers, but is also helpful for Clinic
Managers to evaluate the success of Care Management Plus. Administrative
Reports generated from CMT demonstrate the level of adoption, list
providers and their use of Care Managers and for what purposes, and the
effectiveness and productivity of the Care Managers. The reports can be
generated for any time period. Some of the more useful reports include:
- Number of patients referred by physician
- Diagnoses and Payers
- Trends in outcomes for depression (PHQ-9) and
diabetes (Hemoglobin A1C, patient goals)
- Work breakdown by Encounter Type such as phone
calls, face-to-face visits, administrative, clinic visits and the
time for each.
