Memorial Hermann Care Management received the Franklin Award of Distinction

Memorial Hermann Health System's Care Management Services program provides a standardized approach to case management for a seven-hospital system. The system was chosen based upon their program structure and systematic approach to case management across the entire system. The model provides for common policies and procedures, electronic case management tools, and a collaborative practice approach which includes nurses, social workers, physicians, patients, caregivers and the community.
The award is named for Benjamin Franklin, the co-founder of the first organized hospital in the United States. His personal character, integrity and credibility, as well as his reputation as an entrepreneur and inventor, represent the type of leadership and forward thinking that distinguish the hospitals or health systems recognized as Franklin Award recipients.
