What is Care Coordination?
Purpose To improve the health status and quality of life of members, while decreasing unnecessary hospitalizations and emergency room (ER) visits, by improving member self-management skills, and by increasing adherence of both members and providers with clinician adherence with national guidelines.
Onsite Programs ER Navigator Tiny Tots Discharge Education Team Stork Care Embedded Case Management The ER Navigators and ER Coordinators are working to reduce these numbers by educating our members on proper ER utilization and the programs and services available here at Passport to assist them with their health care needs. The ER Navigators are the nurses in the ER making face-to-face contact with the members, giving them information on the programs and services available to them in an effort to reduce the non-emergent ER utilization. Passport kids are not subject to ER lock in The ER Coordinators receive daily (Norton and Sts. Mary and Elizabeth) or weekly (Hardin Memorial) reports on ER utilization of Passport members and use telephonic outreach and mailings to educate members on proper ER utilization and refer them to the appropriate programs/departments to assist them with any barriers to care. Tiny Tots One in nine babies born in the United States are premature Almost two-thirds of all childhood hospital stays are for newborns (babies up to 30 days old) Goal: Ensure a secure and healthy transition of the detained newborn from hospital to home Identify detained newborns and primary caregiver at point of initial hospitalization Provide early education regarding care of medically fragile infant Coordinate a safe transition to home Assist in arranging discharge needs when medically stable Identify gaps in care Ensure adherence to after care instructions Ensure adherence to scheduled physician appointments Ensure appropriate interventions are followed Definitions: Detained Newborn: Infant in the first 28 days of life that remained hospitalized after mother was discharged. Discharge The goal of our program is to reach out to our members in person while they are in the hospital. We provide education in certain disease categories, currently we are concentrating on CHF, COPD, Respiratory, AMI, Diabetes and Chronic Illness and look for barriers they may have to receiving care. We are sometimes asked by hospital staff to visit members with other conditions that might benefit from our help and we are always happy to do so. 502-588-8593
