Building a managed care approach.
Managed care enhances nursing autonomy and accountability and increases awareness of patients' interactions within a complex multidisciplinary healthcare delivery system. By using this approach, both physicians and nurses are able to assist patients to achieve outcomes quickly, decrease length of hospital stay, and facilitate continuity of care in a cost-effective manner.
