Chronic Care Management (CCM)

What is Chronic Care Management?

Chronic Care Management (CCM) refers to a healthcare delivery model designed to provide continuous, coordinated care for individuals with chronic medical conditions. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recognizes CCM as a critical primary care service contributing to better patient health and care. Chronic conditions typically require ongoing management, monitoring, and support over an extended period.

Order Patients a Device

We provide patients 4G devices that monitor blood pressure, glucose, pulse ox and/or weight. Devices send data back to our platform in real time.

Abnormal Readings

When patients have abnormal readings, our 24/7 clinical team of nurses will call you patient, assess, and escalate relevant cases to the appropriate provider.
