Strategies

Use a case management model for frail elderly patients living independently, coordinating aspects of long-term care (LTC) such as status assessment, monitoring, advocacy, care planning, etc.

Provide condoms free of charge or at a reduced cost in community and school-based settings

Tailor health care to patients’ norms, beliefs, and values, as well as their language and literacy skills

Provide tailored health information and assistance with decision making, behavior change, and emotional support via digital interactive programs

Support a collaborative approach by a multidisciplinary team of professionals working to meet the full range of long-term care (LTC) needs for frail elderly patients living in community settings

Create financial incentives or remove financial disincentives to affect consumer choices and incentivize provision of cost efficient health care services

Use the purchasing power of employers and groups of insured individuals to create incentives and disincentives for health care providers to deliver high quality, high value care
