Chronic Care Management
Chronic Care Management (CCM)
Supporting SCG Patient with the Care of Chronic Conditions
At SCG, we know that facing multiple chronic conditions can be very challenging for many of our patients. That is why we are pleased to offer a new Chronic Care Management (CCM) program called Connected Care.
This program helps you manage chronic health conditions outside of your regularly scheduled office visits – at home, whenever you need us. You can text our office through Connected Care anytime for help with appointments, refills, advice, or anything related to your health. Our team at Connected Care will also check in with you regularly to keep you healthy and out of the hospital.
This program is available to our Medicare and Medicare Advantage patients.

We encourage you to communicate regularly with your care manager. We’re always glad to hear from you, and it’s important that we know how you’re doing. If you feel like you are receiving too many communications, we can modify to meet your needs.
Costs of Connected Care
Like your other healthcare needs, this program may have a small copay depending on your insurance. Many patients do not incur additional charges. Connected Care helps prevent unnecessary hospital visits and will save you hundreds of dollars for each prevented visit. If you decide that the program is no longer valuable, you can unenroll at any time.
