One large state’s Department of Social Services was struggling with managing cases. The case management technology that the department was using was not keeping up with the volume of inquiries, requests, or issues. There was also no way to give departmental groups information about a case after it had “left” their group but was still active within the department. This meant employees had to depend on manual processes to manage cases, which caused effort to be duplicated and eventually led to lack of efficiency and worse, a threat to care and outcomes. Government case management technology, specifically one that could support the management of all inbound and outbound cases from intake through closeout. Improved case management is what the department sorely needed.
State governments shoulder many responsibilities–including the health and welfare of those they govern. Nationwide, social services departments often struggle due to limited resources and funds. Sadly, that situation has only worsened with the nationwide employee shortage, which has impacted governments as well. What is the solution?
The right technology betters processes while safeguarding the standard of care
Like this one, governments and agencies depend on specific processes to manage cases, participants, and outcomes (among other requirements). Manual, paper-based processes... or archaic, ill-equipped technology simply aggravate an already complicated network of care. This can result in duplication of effort, increased errors, and the hinderance of your workers’ ability to perform as necessary, and a commitment to providing a high standard of care and work towards positive outcomes.
Technology must provide a client-first focus
First and foremost, case management technology needs to support processes that put the client first. Intake, assessments, and personalized action plans enhance client service and the client’s overall experience.
Part of that support includes:
Supporting people in the field and protecting sensitive data by being cloud-based
Provide outcome reports to funders and act on trends to improve program and service performance by providing access to baseline and milestone data
Offering a strong flexible framework that supports growth, a wide range of programs and allows for rapid onboarding of new services while providing program-specific workflows and data collection requirements
