Case management is a patient care delivery system that is transforming health care in the 1990s. The key to its success is its primary tenet of collaboration among all disciplines. Case management enhances communication among all disciplines and coordinates patient care services. Multidisciplinary action plans have been developed as a tool for the multidisciplinary team, to guide health care practitioners toward the highest quality, cost-effective care possible. At Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City, the Multidisciplinary Care Model has proven successful on both the Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation services.
