The definition of Prevention Case Management (PCM) in the Evaluation Guidance seems more loosely defined than CDCs guidance on PCM. Which definition applies?
CDCs guidelines on PCM are not mandates for how PCM should be implemented. For evaluation, use the definition of PCM in the Evaluation Guidance. This broader definition will include the definition found in CDCs PCM guidance. As with all the intervention categories, national data about PCM will include some data from more rigorous implementation and some from less rigorous implementation. This is also true of ILI, GLI, and outreach interventions.
