Novel DM approach targets needs of physicians, patients in long-term care setting
Abstract
DM proves to be a good fit with LTC. It's an arena that has long been ignored by the DM industry, but now it seems clear that there is ample opportunity for basic DM principles to positively influence costs and clinical outcomes in long-term care settings. One Brooklyn-based firm is having considerable success doing just that by making the prospect or working exclusively in LTC particularly attractive to physicians.
