Chronic Care Management

Lakeside Primary Care offers comprehensive chronic care management services to Medicare patients with two or more chronic conditions who would benefit from having a dedicated Coordinator. Our coordinators work closely and diligently with the primary care provider. This collaboration ensures seamless and convenient communication is occurring on behalf of the patient.

​

Chronic Care Management Coordinators provide the following to chronic care management patients:

​

• Offers support and coaching over the phone to assist with health-related concerns

• Identifies and secures community resources that would benefit the patient

• Keeps in regular contact with the patient to ensure care plans and goals are exceeded

• Assists with medication management

• Serves as a liaison between patients and their healthcare teams

• Provides resources to help navigate the decision-making process

 

In addition to chronic care management, Lakeside Primary Care offers transitional care management, to those patients needing assistance with the lifestyle changes after a hospitalization. This team works with patients up to 30 days after a hospital discharge to help patients with the following: 

​

• Education on disease processes

• Provide community resources and referrals

• Assistance with medications

• Collaboration with those involved in the patient's care journey 

 

By providing the above assistance, Lakeside Primary Care can help to reduce the likelihood of readmission and emergency department visits.
