Medical case managers play a critical role in engaging and retaining HIV+ individuals in care. Their roles have evolved significantly in recent years. In this workshop, we review HAB MCM monitoring standards, MCM functions and processes, MCM roles in the HIV care continuum, and training curriculum needed to ensure managers’ readiness for their new roles. We also describe methods to assess MCM quality, ways to obtain feedback from the MCM workforce, and findings of MCM quality assessments conducted in Part A EMAs in Texas and Florida. MCM monitoring tools and other useful resources are presented. The Houston Part A grantee will discuss steps taken to address MCM quality assessment findings through quality improvement and training.

Learning Objectives:

  • Increase trainees’ knowledge of HAB’s MCM standards.
  • Trainees will learn about key MCM roles, responsibilities, and processes.
  • Trainees will gain sufficient knowledge to apply methods for monitoring subgrantee MCM performance.
