Disease Management/Population health program

Disease Management/Population Health is designed to support providers in caring for patients with chronic health care needs. Anthem Blue Cross (Anthem) provides members enrolled in the program with continuous education on self-management, assistance in connecting to community resources, and coordination of care by a team of highly qualified professionals whose goal is to create a system of seamless health care interventions and communications.

Disease Management/Population Health case managers provide support to members with:
