Physican leaders at a mid-sized nephrology practice knew they wanted to implement Chronic Care Management (CCM) back when Medicare began funding the program in 2015. The practice's 7 physicians and 3 nurse practitioners had shared goals for CCM:
- Deliver superior patient care: Slow the progression of Chronic Kidney Disease and keep patients off dialysis
- Keep up with inflation: Generate revenue on the between-visit care they were already doing
- Show payors that they could deliver improved outcomes at reduced cost
At first, the practice could not figure out how to scale the program. Traditional approaches to care management would not allow them to serve enough patients or generate enough revenue.
After a lot of research, the practice decided to launch an in-house program using the Phamily CCM platform and expert support. Within a short amount of time, he had a new service line engaging 1,450 patients with high-quality between-visit care.
