Disease
Management
The most effective way to
reduce complications and hospitalization for patients is to educate patients.
Disease management is coordinated healthcare in which patients' self-care
efforts play an important role. Disease management: |
|
|
- supports the physician or practitioner/patient
relationship and plan of care,
- emphasizes prevention of exacerbations and complications,
- evaluates outcomes on an ongoing basis with the
goal of improving overall health, and
- helps patients avoid hospitalization,
surgery and more intensive care.
Mercy has disease management programs in place at
hospitals across our System. Click on the links below to learn more about
