Abstract

To the Editor: McCall and Cromwell (Nov. 3 issue)1 raise doubts about the ability of commercial disease-management programs to improve the quality of care and reduce utilization in the Medicare fee-for-service population. In contrast to the programs noted in the study, we have successfully approached disease support, admittedly in the Medicare Advantage population, with a different strategy supported by the medical literature (Table 1).2,3 Key differences in our approach include risk stratification targeting those at highest risk, a boots-on-the-ground approach with clinician home visits allowing for identification and intervention on both social and health determinants of utilization, and communication . . .
