🩺 Why this matters
Clearly identifying the Most Responsible Provider (MRP) ensures:
Clear clinical leadership
Safer, more coordinated care
Better communication across providers
Accountability when care is shared or transferred
Since roles can shift frequently, Careteam makes it easy to update the MRP for each Action Plan—whether temporarily or permanently.
