Case management is a case-centered care model that leverages multi-disciplinary teamwork to provide quality and cost-effective patient care. To ensure care continuity and timeliness, it is necessary to automate case management systems. A case management database is essential to system efficiency; helping avoid double data entries and ensuring data confidentiality and system security. The database can also support data analysis and programming designed to generate useful statistics and automatic reminders. Identifying critical database functions is the first step in database development. Once a database has been established, it can be applied to functions throughout the case management process, including case screening, care related data retrieval, patient record storage, quality monitoring, insurance reimbursement and research. An effective information automation system will ensure the accuracy and timeliness of information as well as enhance case management quality and efficiency. |
