Tailored Care Management

As North Carolina transitions its Medicaid and NC Health Choice program to managed care, the Department is focused on building effective models for managing beneficiaries comprehensive needs through care management. The Department is investing in the Tailored Care Management model, a community-based, provider-driven model aimed at whole person care and driving toward better health outcomes.  

Through Tailored Care Management, Tailored Plan beneficiaries will have a single designated care manager supported by a multidisciplinary care team to provide integrated care management that addresses all of their needs including: physical health, behavioral health, I/DD, TBI, pharmacy, long-term services and supports (LTSS) and addresses their unmet health-related resource needs. More information on Tailored Care Management is available on the Tailored Care Management webpage.
