ESSAYBID ANSWER

ANS: A
Client-centered case management assists the patient through a fragmented and often confusing health care delivery system and to achieve specific client-centered goals. Systems-centered case management recognizes that health care resources are finite. Helping clients understand their health problems is a responsibility of health education, not case management.
