Type: Save Data Entry

In this critical phase of patient care management, healthcare providers focus on pinpointing individuals who are at a higher risk of adverse outcomes or complications. This step involves analyzing various factors such as medical history, current health status, and treatment plans to categorize patients into high-risk groups. The objective is to recognize potential warning signs that may indicate an increased likelihood of severe illness or mortality. A thorough examination of clinical data, including lab results, medication adherence, and social determinants of health, enables healthcare professionals to make informed decisions about patient care. By identifying high-risk patients early on, healthcare providers can implement proactive measures to prevent complications and improve treatment outcomes. This targeted approach helps ensure that vulnerable populations receive the necessary support and resources to optimize their health and well-being.
