Hearst Health Prize Winner CCNC: Care Transition Management Not ‘One-Size-Fits-All’

Community Care of North Carolina’s Transitional Care program was awarded the Hearst Health Prize this month not only for demonstrating how effective transitional care is for its 1.5 million Medicaid beneficiaries, but also for continually evaluating and modifying the intervention based on its findings. In this broadcast, Carlos Jackson, CCNC’s director of program evaluation, shares one of CCNC’s more interesting findings, identifying the priority population for the intervention, and explains why the care transition management mindset must expand beyond reducing hospital readmissions.
