Accountable Health Partners is pleased to share news of the expansion of the Pediatric Care Management Team with the addition of two Pediatric Community Outreach staff, Brianna Searight, BSW, and Meghan Willis, BA. Brianna and Meghan will coordinate with the team’s Social Work Care Managers to address low-acuity and low-complexity referrals. This expansion will allow the Social Work Care Managers on the team the capacity to focus on patients with the most complex needs. The addition of the Pediatric Outreach Staff represents AHP’s intent to be responsive to the increasing needs of practices and their patients.
There are no changes to the workflow for practices and their providers: referrals should be shared with the practice’s care manager in the already-established manner. Should the care manager believe the referral is low in acuity and/or complexity, they will communicate that with the individual submitting the referral and coordinate directly with one of the Pediatric Community Outreach staff to meet the provider’s and patient’s needs.
If you have any questions about the Pediatric Community Outreach staff, please contact Robin McElligott.
