Integrated Care Coordination
Phoenix Children's Care Network (PCCN)
What is Integrated Care Coordination (ICC)?
PCCN offers a comprehensive Integrated Care Coordination (ICC) program to patients aligned with its partnered health plans and its participating provider membership. Care coordination reaches across medical and nonmedical domains to address interrelated medical, social, developmental, behavioral, educational, and financial needs to achieve optimal health and wellness outcomes.
Care coordination is the set of activities in the space between visits, care, and hospital stays
Care coordination activities serve the delivery of integrated health care for patients most vulnerable to care fragmentation.
Effective Care Coordination can result in patient/family’s:
- Partnerships with professionals/PCP’s
- Satisfaction with services
- Ease of getting referrals
- Lower out of pocket expenses and family financial burden
- Fewer hours per week spent coordinating care
- Less impact on parental employment
- Fewer school absences
