People who have a persistent medical condition and live in chronic pain can benefit from the in-home palliative and chronic care services offered by Headwaters Hospice and Palliative Care, LLC. While many people associate palliative care and hospice with end-of-life care and treating symptoms of a terminal illness after ending curative care, the truth is that specialized care, provided in the comfort of one's own home, can greatly enhance the quality of life for someone with a chronic illness. Our Helena, MT chronic care management plans are customized to meet your needs and are flexible to accommodate any changes. Call us today to learn more.
Chronic Care Management Helena, MT
Chronic care management is available to people with persistent symptoms from a chronic medical condition. The services we provide are similar to hospice care in that we offer treatment intended to make patients more comfortable and improve their quality of life.
Palliative in-home care for individuals with chronic medical conditions is typically covered under Medicaid, a program known as Chronic Care Management (CCM). The program is open to patients who have at least two chronic conditions that are projected by their physician to last at least 12 months. This could include conditions in which the patient receives curative care and conditions in which they opt to cease curative care, including Alzheimer's, heart disease, COPD, and diabetes.
The goals of CCM are threefold:
- Reduce the occurrence of hospital readmissions by providing light medical care in the patient's home
- Help patients better manage their health by mitigating the symptoms of their conditions and providing individualized education for each patient about healthier lifestyle choices
- Improve each patient's overall quality of life. Reducing the frequency and intensity of flare-ups and treating the symptoms of their chronic conditions can make it easier for patients to care for themselves without assistance or even return to work
CCM services include regular check-ins, medication management, care coordination, education, and around-the-clock access to healthcare professionals. Our Helena chronic care management services are Medicaid-compliant, and we work closely with you and your family to ensure that the services you need are covered.
