Interested in timely reports which cull text and information from various articles and resource materials to help align the functions of a case manager with outcomes which case managers directly impact?

The State of the Science papers are based upon the "direct outcomes" which case managers directly impact, including:

• Patient Adherence
• Coordination of Care
• Patient Involvement and Empowerment

The State of the Science papers are the vehicle for exloring what is known about a concept in the literature, what measures and indicators exist, and how strong the linkage is between the "direct outcome" and the end outcome.

Two of the three State of the Science papers are currently available:

• "Patient Adherence Outcome Indicators & Measurement in Case Management Healthcare"
• "Involvement/Participation Empowerment and Knowledge Outcome Indicators of Case Management"

The last of the State of the Science papers ("Coordination of Care in Case Management and Healthcare") will available at a later date.
