abstract = {The current phase of development of health services is characterised by multiple changes that affect the organisational models of primary production lines (hospital, clinics, etc.) and the method of use by users. The clinical governance is a “strategy by which healthcare organisations are responsible for continuous improvement in the quality of services and achievement-maintaining high professional standards, stimulating the creation of an environment that fosters professional excellence”. In this perspective of clinical governance, the role of the case manager with its clinical and managerial and financial skills becomes a key figure to ensure quality as a set of aspects of efficiency, effectiveness, safety, appropriateness, participation and equity. Case management fits perfectly in the context of assistance, to promote an increased quality of care, resulting in improved life, through coordination, integrating different professional contributions and ensuring continuity of care through all stages of treatment. In conclusion, preliminary results indicate that the increase of this organisation could be more functionally to reduce some team’s gap.},
