Abstract
Capitated payment systems have forced healthcare providers to explore new methods of care delivery for frail, older clients who consume a disproportionate amount of time and resources. The authors describe the experiences of frail elders in a community case management program within a managed care setting. The experiences of living with frailty in a changing healthcare system, and perceptions of the case manager's ability to help navigate that system, are described. This article presents the benefits of community case management toward client goals of safety, support, and control.
