Integrated Care
In the Nuka System of Care, each customer-owner has access to a fully integrated care team, including a provider, a case manager, a behavioral health consultant, a dietician and a clinical pharmacist. The team works together on a daily basis to ensure coordinated care and follow-up – allowing the physician to work at the top of his or her license while other members proactively identify and manage issues that can negatively impact health and drive up the cost of care.
