At Summit Health, we provide coordinated care for patients living with chronic health conditions.

What Is Chronic Care Management?
Chronic Care Management (CCM) is designed for patients with one or more long-term conditions that require ongoing medical attention, such as diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, arthritis, or lung disease. Rather than addressing issues only when symptoms worsen, CCM focuses on continuous care between office visits. This approach helps prevent flare-ups, reduce hospitalizations, and ensure all aspects of your health are being addressed.
