Annotation	Case management has increased substantially and is now an integral part of the home help system in the United States. Although case management has been implemented in home care programmes since the 1970s, the core components of the intervention have remained unchanged. Standardisation of practice can be important; however, it is also necessary for models of care to be modified as the health and long-term care systems change. This article presents alternative approaches to delivering case management now being tested in two home care programmes funded through community property tax levies.
