Who is CMSA
The Case Management Society of America (CMSA) is a nationally recognized
innovative 501 (c) (6) nonprofit organization which serves as the
largest collaborative case management professional association in the
United States. We embrace care management professionals from a variety
of disciplines, practice settings, skill levels and professional
capacities, including: case managers, care managers and coordinators,
nurses, social workers, rehab specialists, physicians, health coaches,
pharmacists, students in case management programs, corporations and
other partners that support the case management industry. The mission of
CMSA is to positively impact and improve healthcare consumer outcomes
by informing consumers about the services case and care managers
provide; by educating physicians and other healthcare providers as well
as payors and regulators about improved patient outcomes through the
services case and care management offers. Case/care managers believe
healthcare recipients need an advocate…someone who helps each consumer
understand their healthcare situation, identify appropriate options and
understand their available healthcare insurance benefits. Assist the
consumer in obtaining the information necessary to make informed
healthcare decisions. And serve as a guide through the healthcare maze
to a positive outcome. The Dallas Fort Worth Chapter of CMSA is one of
the largest Chapters in the country with membership over 400. The Case
Management Society of America is a not-for-profit organization dedicated
to the support and development of the profession of case management
through educational forums and networking opportunities. CMSA has
experienced rapid growth since its founding. There are currently nearly
11,000+ members and 73 state and local chapters nationally. Members
are kept abreast of programs, news, developments and activities through
two publications, one a contemporary magazine; Case In Point and a
research publication, Professional Case Management. Each member receives
these publications each month.
