Geriatric Care Managers can play a critical role. The outcome is always better when a Care Manager is involved.
MEDICARE UPDATE
We are approved Medicare providers of Counseling and Psychosocial Evaluation. Medicare does
not cover our Care Management services, but it does allow us to add Counseling
to our service line.
If you have any questions or
would like to see how you can take advantage of this new program, give us a
