This team will work collaboratively to provide personalized care plans, care coordination, and case management, ensuring patients receive holistic, patient-centered care to improve health outcomes, especially for those with comorbidities.

Dr Samya Abdulla, Executive Director of Operations at PHCC, expressed enthusiasm saying, "The implementation of the Case Management Service reflects our commitment to advancing healthcare services in primary care. During the pilot phase we witnessed improved patient experience that led to better health outcomes, improved quality of life for our patients reduced service utilization, and enabled a more cost-effective integrated approach to care.

By focusing on patient-centered, integrated care, we aim to enhance the overall well-being of our patients and empower them to lead healthier lives."
