Chronic care management in Topeka, Kansas
At the University of Kansas St. Francis, we believe that managing chronic care needs should be a convenient and simple process. That’s why we have partnered with CareHarmony to offer a Chronic Care Management program for Medicare patients living with two or more chronic conditions. Chronic Care Management is a care coordination program designed by Medicare to help you better manage your chronic conditions, receive support and access care, even from the comfort of your home. We recommend all qualifying patients to enroll in this program.
