What is CareManager?
Disease Management software for:Asthma
Cervical Cancer Screening
Coronary Heart Disease

04/19/23 Slide 5
CareManager has two main components - one is accessed within the EHR and one via Web
The CareManager Control Panel and Dashboards are Encounter Forms in the EHR where you can:
View individual patient status
Easily enter data that will flow to the CareManager application
The Web based CareManager application:Allows you to track a single patient or your entire population of patients by disease state
Generally you do NOT make entries directly in the CareManager application. Most data entry is done in the EHR.

Second contact – repeat letter and lab order
If no response contact patient by phone
Advise PCP if no response

Patient Communications
All documents created are imported to the patient chart
Use Cases:Send an individual, personal letter or email to a patient who is due for a particular lab test.
Document a phone call made to an individual patient to explain a lab result.
Create a customized message that is designed for a group of people who need to come in for a particular test, and personalize the message for each patient in the group by using symbols that CareManager replaces with patient-specific EHR data.
