    The Case Management Society of America (CMSA) and TCS Healthcare Technologies (TCS) announced today that both organizations are co-sponsoring a Webinar that will provide an overview of Acuity AnyWare, a web-enabled software program launched in 2008 to help independent and small groups of case managers support their patients and clients.

    CMSA Executive Director and webinar co-presenter, Cheri Lattimer, RN, BSN, adds “CMSA is pleased to co-host this important presentation. Acuity AnyWare is a hosted application, which can be used without the need to install expensive software or have technical support to maintain it. The application allows users to transition from a manual system to an electronic system that is specifically suited to the activities of a nurse case manager.”

    TCS founder and CEO Rob Pock notes “We are proud to have worked with CMSA in the past on a number of different projects. This Webinar highlights our joint efforts to break down technology barriers for case managers of all types through Acuity AnyWare.”

    During the hour long session, webinar attendees will learn about:


    •     How ACUITY AnyWare, as a CMSA benefit, can support case managers
    •     An Overview of ACUITY AnyWare key functions
    •     Some of the challenges for clinicians and others when implementing or using a care management software system
    •     Recent health IT trends that are impacting the practice of case management
    •     Includes a Question and Answer (Q&A) session at the end.

    Pat Stricker, RN, M.Ed., senior vice president at TCS and co-presenter, comments that “the Webinar will feature a demo of Acuity AnyWare highlighting several attributes of the software application such as the electronic task manager function that helps clinicians keep track of daily activities with automated reminders. The presentation also will highlight how a case management software system can optimize our clinical and administrative workflows.”
