Care management programs 

For members with acute, chronic, or complex health conditions, Fallon Health’s care management programs may help you improve your quality of life and your health. These programs are free of charge, and you can choose to participate or not at any time―it won't affect your benefits.

What are acute, chronic, and complex health conditions? 

Acute health conditions are short-term conditions. They come on suddenly and don’t last long (a few days to several weeks). Examples include colds, viruses, infections, or injuries. 

Chronic health conditions develop gradually, last for months or years, and may get worse over time. Examples include asthma, cardiac conditions, congestive heart failure, COPD, and diabetes. 

Complex health conditions consist of more than one health condition—chronic and/or acute —and require multiple types of care or care providers.  

Programs for members with acute health conditions

  • Case Management is provided by our team of registered nurse case managers and social workers, who will teach you about your conditions and work with your medical and behavioral health providers to make sure you’re getting the services you need.

For members with chronic and complex health conditions

Help is available for those who have asthma, cardiac conditions, congestive heart failure, COPD, and diabetes. We can also assist you in managing any complex medical and/or behavioral health needs.

  • Help you learn more about your condition
  • Give you information about online resources and local programs
  • Provide you with educational materials about living well with your condition
  • Arrange for equipment if you need it
  • Assist in finding specialists to manage your complex care
