title: Changes in hospital case management through the years.
abstract: "Going Forward: What Is Case Management?," a recent HeartBeat of Case Management column in this journal, set off a wave of positive comments to the author. Hospital case management has been at the forefront of many of the changes in the past several decades. Even today, these changes should be reevaluated to enhance what is best for the patient, the business of health care, quality, and evidence-based care.
