title: Private-pay case management. Let the seller beware.
abstract: Selling case management to adult children and older persons as a discrete service is neither as simple nor as lucrative as many people believe. This article addresses some issues related to private-pay case management: What is case management? What agencies and organizations provide this service? What opportunities exist for a home care agency to become involved? Is there really a need for case management?
