Discussion Post (CCM Protocol): The nursing protocol I have recently worked with is Chronic Care Management (CCM). It is a Medicare-sponsored virtual care program for patients with chronic conditions. Implemented in a primary care office, the program promises continuous, remote care and lets patients monitor and manage their home health. The main aim of the CCM is to ensure that patients acquire regular care and supervision to help prevent their condition from worsening (Tandan et al., 2024). A dedicated virtual care team allows patients to access CCM anytime, anywhere, without appointments or office visits (Dufour et al., 2023). The team coordinates cross-provider care to achieve the patient’s health goals. CCM helps patients avoid serious health events like emergency department visits or falls by engaging patients via regular, coordinated check-ins and communication. It also intends to lower long-term healthcare bill costs by addressing such issues before they become problematic. Medicare guidelines and evidence-based practices in chronic disease management underline the development of the CCM protocol (Gibbs et al., 2021). The informed consent form explains the personalization of care and coordinated support. CCM builds on focusing on patients’ health and quality of life and helps people manage their condition effectively. The program’s structure provides an opportunity to continue interacting with healthcare providers, resulting in improved health outcomes and increased effectiveness in chronic care.
Question need to be answered about the post:
Thank you for your post about Chronic care management. You’ve highlighted essential aspects of the program, such as the focus on long-term care coordination and its benefits for patients with chronic health conditions. According to Boeykens et al., 2022 primary care providers, especially nurses, play crucial roles in the lives of people with chronic conditions. As you mentioned, the program’s main aim is to make sure that patients with these conditions get regular care and supervision needed to prevent their conditions from worsening. The providers can see the improved patient outcomes from this program by noting fewer hospitalizations or emergency visits.
Some of the downsides I see with this program are the initial implementation, educating staff on the new technology, and ensuring that the patients have the same access to the program. The start-up costs of getting the technology needed to meet virtually with patients would be quite a sum. What strategies can be implemented to overcome the barriers to adopting this program with healthcare providers?
