Health Management Programs Exceptional Decision Support And Disease Management
The ConnectionsSM Health Management Program can help members with chronic conditions such as diabetes, lung or breathing problems, or heart conditions learn how to improve their health and overall quality of life. In addition, this program supports members who have everyday health concerns as well as members who are facing significant medical decisions.
The program is designed to:
- empower and engage members;
- identify and manage risks;
- support treatment compliance and improve health status;
- promote greater awareness;
- optimize utilization of health care resources.
Disease management targets the most costly chronic diseases that account for the majority of claims.
Decision support helps members understand their medical conditions, work effectively with their doctors to make informed choices, and take an active role in managing their health care. Health coaching is a vital component as it enhances compliance and provides the knowledge and encouragement to help members participate in the decision-making and treatment process as well as address the concerns of members and their families.
