91九色视频 Pediatric Complex Care Patient Care
The Complex Care Program offers comprehensive care coordination for medically complex and fragile children who do not have existing care coordination services. Our goal is to ensure seamless inpatient and outpatient care. The Complex Care partners with patients/families and primary care providers to help optimize coordination. All patients enrolled in the Complex Care Program have a nurse case manager, and some also have a physician care coordinator. All patients in the Complex Care are encouraged to have a Primary Care Provider. Families, providers, or any caregiver may refer a child.
