Each day brings new challenges for patients who are living with a chronic illness. Care Management programs from Preferred Care help your eligible patients meet the medical and social challenges associated with illness.

Support for Patients
Working in partnership with you, Preferred Care's team of nurses, therapists and care managers provide patient support that includes:

• Accessing medical services
• Exploring mechanisms to enhance self-care practices through educational mailings, newsletters, phone calls or home visits (when applicable)
• Accessing useful community programs
• Locating free wellness classes and services

There is no charge to your patients for most of these programs.

Provider Support
Preferred Care's care management programs provide you with easy, effective ways to enhance your patients' care.

• Our programs have documented improved patient outcomes
