At-risk participants will be randomized 1:1 to either usual care or intensive management utilizing longitudinal patient tracking, proactive outreach, multidisciplinary action planning and careful outcomes monitoring for 6 months. Participants in the intervention group will be assigned to a partnership of one nurse practitioner and one medical assistant who will manage them with the support of the study team. Staff will focus on contacting all patients within one week of any emergency department visit or hospital discharge, contacting all highest-risk participants weekly and all participants monthly, and completing high-priority tasks for participant care within one week. The primary outcomes of this quality improvement study are inpatient bed days and number of inpatient admissions.
