Care Transitions Today Podcast

Case by Case: Barriers to Discharge, Pathways to Resolution

This episode is co-presented by the Association of Physician Leadership in Care Management and the American Case Management Association. In this episode, we are joined by returning experts Dr. Rebecca Severe and Dr. Sweta Singh, along with Jennifer Dominow and Marla Kolovitz from Loyola Medicine to share their insights on navigating complex patient transitions.

This episode dives into three complex patient cases that reveal the real-world challenges of case management and utilization review—from surgical complications and readmission dilemmas to high-risk discharges and insurance barriers. The panel explores how legal coordination, interdisciplinary teamwork, and persistent advocacy can make all the difference.
