Chronic disease/illness management

A structured approach aimed at enhancing healthcare for individuals with chronic diseases. The core elements of most CDM approaches include patient self-management, physician education, and organizational support. A range of strategies are used at Ely VA Clinic, including case management, continuous quality improvement, disease management (DM), and the chronic care model (CCM).

Court-ordered outpatient treatment

Referred to by various names in different states, such as "assisted outpatient treatment (AOT)," "involuntary outpatient treatment," or "mandatory outpatient treatment." 44 states including Minnesota allow the use of court-ordered outpatient treatment as a way for individuals with severe mental illness, who are unable to voluntarily receive care, to stay in their community. Each state has its own laws regarding involuntary commitment that establish the criteria for determining when court-ordered treatment is appropriate for these individuals.
