| With an aggressive expansion plan set for its embedded case management program, Aetna has clearly demonstrated the value of embedded case managers working side-by-side with physicians serving Aetnas Medicare members.
Aetna began placing case managers in primary care practices in 2007 after its telephonic case management program showed significant reductions in the number of acute care days.
