This scoping review aimed to examine telehealth-assisted case management for chronic illnesses and assess its overall impact on health care delivery. Guided by the PRISMA statement, this review included 36 empirical studies published between 2011 and 2020. This study identified three weaknesses and four strengths of telehealth-assisted case management. While the weaknesses were negative feelings about telehealth, challenges faced by patients in learning and using telehealth devices, and increased workload for case managers, the strengths included efficient and timely care, increased access to health care services, support for patients’ satisfaction, and cost savings. Future research can be designed and conducted for overcoming the weaknesses of telehealth-assisted case management. Additionally, the strengths identified by this review need to be translated from research into case management practice for chronic illness care. This review not only describes the value of such care strategy, but also provides implications for future nursing practice and research.

The Right

Even after 30 years of experience, two questions persist about case management practice. Who needs it and does it work? Answers to these questions are neither direct nor simple. This article examines the significance of various contexts (policy, system, community, and organization) to efforts attempting to provide responses to these basic questions. Beyond the question of who needs case management, two additional questions are addressed. Who needs it and who gets it? Clients’ qualitative perspectives on case management effectiveness, beyond attempts to measure satisfaction and quality of life, are usually absent. The article concludes with a discussion of whether these are the right questions.
