Nursing case management. Does it pay?

Abstract

Hospitals can realize substantial savings from nursing case management. The author describes an investigation assessing the cost-effectiveness of this mode of patient care delivery. The results showed an overall decrease in length of stay, an increase in patient turnover, and a potential increase in patient revenues generated for the hospital. The author provides several general and socioeconomic implications relating to the importance of nursing case management to patient care and institutions' profitability.
