THE ROLE OF CARE MANAGEMENT IN IMPROVING MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS (MS) CARE
According to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, MS is thought to affect more than 2.3 million people worldwide.¹ The progressive, unpredictable nature of MS and its symptoms combined with the disease’s emotional and social impact creates a complex clinical challenge for healthcare professionals.² The Care Manager Multiple Sclerosis program is designed to support patients with MS through their experiences and outcomes. The program includes a live workshop and a website with educational tools and downloadable resources for patients.
