During this 45-minute webinar, Joan Tulk, RN, MPH, director of clinical performance management at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Clinic, will examine an embedded case manager program, from the factors that will help you determine if a program is right for your organization and deciding on the placement to defining roles and responsibilities and securing funding for a program.
Ms. Tulk will cover:

- Identifying which patients would benefit from this type of case management;
- Skill sets, roles and responsibilities of the embedded case manager;
