Care Coordination

All across the country, communities work to address the needs of their most vulnerable members. Due to the historically fragmented model of care, critical services are often split up among a variety of programs and providers that are often not in contact.

This siloed approach subjects individuals to overlapping and non-coordinated care plans, resulting in increased provider costs while achieving poorer health outcomes.
Health and human services agencies are working to transition to a better approach. Care coordination breaks down the barriers dividing primary care, behavioral health, and community-based organizations that, together, provide the services necessary to truly improve outcomes for high-needs individuals.
