Chronic care management (CCM) is a specific care management service offering coverage for patients with at least two chronic disorders for a continuous relationship with their individual health care team. This program includes developing a comprehensive health care plan, coordination of care between providers, medication management, and interactive remote communication and management (generally over the phone).
Chronic care management is offered at San Antonio Gastroenterology Associates and can be advantageous for patients when it comes to receiving ongoing health and wellness support. It also allows for greater access to the proper medical resources, enhanced communication with care team members, fewer emergency room visits and hospital stays or readmissions, and increased engagement in the patient's own healthcare.

A wall sign in rear waiting room says no electronic devices so I didn't take my cell phone back with me and wasn't able to communicate with my husband. Staff was too busy to relay my status in recovery and when my husband asked he was told to just wait. She wasn't rude just not helpful.
People were kind at the desk and preparation for the encounter eith Doctor. Doctor Guerra super kind. Helping me to understand evetything. Thank you
I love this doctor. He answered all of my questions and going to investigate what I have going on with my oesophagus. I would recommend this to anyone in my family.
Everyone was great,,,receptionist very helpful, Ken checked me/got IV in 1 stick 😊, Aaron took me to the procedure room, Crystal was there and remembered me from EGD to help set up scopes. Tom, anesthesia, was great with anesthesia/worke up right at end so fast recovery,, perfect. Annie was great in recovery. Bess was there too from my EGD. Sorry did not meet man working on scopes but thank you for working with scopes and computers. Sorry they were acting up and had to be rebooted. Thanks to all the team, was great from start to finish. And, of course, Dr. Malllkarjun was wonderful.
