A recent study by the US Department of Labor identified the following challenges facing the improvement of Case Management and increasing workforce system integration.
- Interfacing across different databases: Often, available services vary at the state and local levels. Having separate systems that do not form a comprehensive database leads to duplication of records and slows down service delivery. Linking systems also can be costly and time-consuming.
- Minimize customer data requests: Case Managers frequently need to collect client information multiple times to enroll in different services, which is frustrating to clients.
- Restricted information sharing: Clients often work with multiple case managers and service providers. A significant challenge for many is tracking and sharing that information with everyone who needs access.
- Tracking progress and outcomes: Many states and local governments and agencies have their own reporting requirements and financial payment systems. Reporting is often not automated or antiquated, requiring multiple systems to measure outcomes.
