The Case Management Society of America (CMSA) is running a campaign to find new members.  This organization (of which I am a member) is more than 11,000 members strong.  Case managers positively impact and improve on patient well being as well as health care outcomes.  CMSA case managers believe that patients need an advocate; someone who helps each client understand their situation, what they need to do about it and why that treatment is important.  We serve as catalysts and by working together we enable our clients to achieve their foals more effectively and efficiently.

CMSA members have access to a national conference, educational resource library, online CE’s, Standards of Practice, e-newsletter, Core Curriculum for Case Management as well as the Publications;  Case in Point and the Professional Case Management journal.  CMSA has 75 local chapters and they are headquartered right here in Little Rock, Arkansas.
