Medical Management
Our Professional Staff can attend and evaluate medical appointments, assist in managing medications, provide health summaries to specialists, and oversee in-home care providers. We communicate with and discuss our findings with family members as often as necessary. An important part of our success with elderly and disabled clients comes from helping them feel like they are still in charge of their lives.
Coordinating & Managing Medical Care
Communication When It’s Most Needed
Coordinating medical care can be a full-time job. Especially if your elderly loved one has multiple health conditions or is an adult child living with a disability. But research shows just how important it is. A lack of communication between multiple medical providers is responsible for many preventable hospital admissions and failing health. Especially when it comes to medication management and administration. ACM Care’s professional staff can help to coordinate care across multiple medical providers and help to manage complex health conditions.
Coordinated for You
Our Medical Management program is designed to make sure you or your loved one receives all of the benefits of coordinated healthcare. We understand the complex medical jargon and can help interpret it for you. Insurance and doctors office case managers also help with this, but ACM Care takes it to the next level. We will accompany your loved one to every doctor’s appointment, communicate and coordinate information, and be the eyes and ears in the home. That allows us to accurately report what really is and isn’t working.
ACM Care has been working with us since my diagnosis in March. My ACM Care manager has reviewed my insurance policy and treatment plan, helped organize my thoughts prior to treatment, doctors’ appointments & tests, helped me track my progress and provided a sounding board to discuss thoughts and feelings. She has given me encouragement and confidence. All this as I oversee the medical care of my elderly, disabled husband. For my husband the case manager has been invaluable. He has many physicians, each with their own agenda and list of medications. The case manager, through her patience and understanding, has established a trust with my husband. She has been able to set up and coordinate his medications, help organize his doctors’ appointments and has been guiding him gently. I have been unable to do this despite 25 years in the health care field. For the first time in years I feel confident that my husband is receiving the right medical care. Words can not describe my gratitude for the help that we are receiving from ACM. R. C.
