Lessons from the Camden Coalition's Care Management RCT (Part 1 of 2)
Description
This is the first of a two-part webinar series on implications of the Camden Coalition’s RCT results.
In 2020, a major article on “healthcare hotspotting” may have caught your eye. It did ours! The article described findings from a four-year, prospective, 800-person randomized evaluation of the Camden Coalition’s Camden Core Model, an innovative and comprehensive approach to care coordination for patients with very high use of healthcare services. The study found no differences in hospital utilization between patients randomly assigned to the Camden Core Model and those who received usual care. In 2023, the Camden Coalition published two secondary analyses looking at intervention dosage and engagement, and they teamed back up with MIT’s J-PAL to publish a new analysis looking at more intermediate measures of care coordination. These studies help to explain the original RCT’s primary outcomes findings.
On April 5, 9-10am PT, participants joined us for a moderated panel discussion with Kathleen Noonan (Camden Coalition), Kedar Mate (Institute for Healthcare Improvement), and Damon Francis (Alameda Health System) about study implications. Prior to the panel conversation, Amy Finkelstein (MIT) and Aaron Truchil (Camden Coalition) briefly presented study findings.
