Here’s everything you need to know about Chronic Care Management and how it can benefit you or your loved ones.
What is Chronic Care Management?
Chronic Care Management (CCM) is a coordinated care approach designed for Medicare beneficiaries with two or more significant chronic conditions. It is focused on enhancing health and quality of life by providing continuous support outside of regular doctor visits.
How Can Patients Access CCM Services?
To benefit from CCM services, you must be enrolled in Medicare and have multiple chronic conditions. Here’s how you can start:
- Talk to Your Healthcare Provider: Discuss your chronic health conditions with your doctor and ask if CCM services suit you.
- Consent to Receive CCM Services: Your provider will require your consent to enroll you in the CCM program, ensuring you understand the services and any associated costs.
