A Beginner's Guide

We could write several novels on case management and its uses without exhausting the subject. If you already know what case management is but haven't yet purchased a case management package like Time Matters, please read on. If you have purchased a case management system like Time matters, but have not tweaked it read on. You may get some ideas. If you "get" you may still find some arguments to hells convince your colleagues.

Managing Expectations

Good habits are the key to getting the most out of case management. You need to begin with a sense of what process will work. Prior to implementations or a case management system, these will be manual processes. A good system for intake of new cases, including gathering detailed client information and details about all the actors in a case will translate into an "actors and actions" table in Time Matters. A system of regular job and task assignments, will translate into a successful delegation system.
