title: Community-based HIV case management: challenges and opportunities.
abstract: Over the past decade, case management has become a popular strategy for the organization and delivery of health service. Yet, in many settings, a lack of clarity exists as to the exact function and process of case management. The author addresses key issues in the debate surrounding case management and provides insight into how these issues can be resolved. The potential of case management in future healthcare restructuring and HIV/AIDS prevention is explored.
