Care coordination streamlines and optimizes healthcare for the benefit of patients. Healthcare providers assess patients’ needs, operate effectively and efficiently to meet them and help patients and their families successfully navigate healthcare systems.
With their dedication to care coordination, Dr. Awan and Dr. Eichler at Boca Prestige Concierge address problems in the way patients’ needs relate to each other, including:
Understanding the interrelations involved and working closely with others in these areas ensures the best possible outcomes for patients.
Every patient’s care coordination is personalized to their needs. One example might be that Boca Prestige Concierge attends to your medical care after you suffer an injury or undergo surgery, then coordinates care with physical therapy specialists to ensure you get the treatment required to regain optimal function.
If you develop problems like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or depression after the injury or operation, Dr. Awan and Dr. Eichler might also work with a counselor or psychologist to help you overcome these issues.
During your recovery, they might work with your employer to ensure you get back to work without delay, help you with workers’ compensation or insurance claims, and suggest other support services like occupational health to help you manage daily tasks.
If your condition means you need to spend time in rehab, an assisted living facility, or a care home, Dr. Awan and Dr. Eichler can help you make the transition smoothly.
You’re most likely to benefit from care coordination if you have a chronic disease, undergo major surgery, or suffer a severe injury. These situations require long-term care and often need input from other medical specialists.
You could also benefit from care coordination if your health issue affects other aspects of your life. Examples include experiencing financial difficulties because you can’t work, developing mental health problems, having little or no support from family and friends, and struggling to cope with looking after yourself.
No matter how straightforward or complex your situation, care coordination makes everything run more smoothly so you can focus on getting well. Call Boca Prestige Concierge to learn more or schedule a home visit or telemedicine consultation online today.
