“It is interesting to see how some of the communication practices of case managers with their patients have changed over the past 10 years as the digital age takes center stage,” notes “Garry Carneal, JD, MA, Schooner Strategies, President and CEO. “Texting, email, telehealth, video conferencing and patient portals are on the upswing; communication including face-to-face meetings and telephonic-based transactions remain steady; while written letters and facsimiles are on the downswing. In addition, some communication platforms are used less than expected such as remote patient monitoring and smartphone applications. Others such as artificial intelligence-based communications show potential.”

“Issue Brief 2 looks at key communication interfaces with care management software systems,” adds Pat Stricker, RN, who is serving as the survey coordinator. “Although some communication links are not optimized, the interface between care management software systems and patient-based communications holds a lot of promise, including engagement, scheduling, virtual visits, and documentation applications.” “

This is the fourth time that CMSA and Schooner Strategies have teamed up for the Health IT Survey with a focus on medical management. The first three surveys were conducted in 2008, 2010 and 2012.
