Medicare Patients: Take Control of Your Health with Advanced Primary Care Management
At Baptist Medical Group, we believe great care doesn’t stop when you leave the office. That’s why we offer Advanced Primary Care Management (APCM), a personalized support program for Medicare patients living with chronic conditions.
With APCM, you’ll have a dedicated nurse care coordinator who helps you manage your health between visits, stay on track with your care plan, and connect with your provider when you need it. It’s proactive, personalized care designed to keep you feeling your best and help prevent serious health issues before they start.
A More Personalized Way to Treat Your Chronic Condition
Chronic conditions are long-term health concerns that require consistent care. They can’t usually be cured with medication alone, but they can be managed with the right support. Some examples include:
-
Arthritis
-
Diabetes
-
High blood pressure
-
High cholesterol
If you’re living with one or more of these conditions, APCM may be right for you.

How Advanced Primary Care Management Works
Once enrolled, your provider will recommend the best type of monitoring based on your health needs and create a customized care plan just for you. You’ll stay connected in one of two simple ways:
Online: The free and secure Baptist OneCare© MyChart app allows you to easily share health updates at home. You’ll receive regular prompts to answer simple questions about how you’re feeling. Your responses go directly to your APCM nurse coordinator, who reviews them and communicates if anything needs attention. If necessary, we’ll help connect you to your provider for timely care.
Direct communication through scheduled phone calls: An APCM nurse coordinator will contact you regularly by phone to monitor your progress and support your ongoing care.
