disease management
Disease management is a systematic approach to improving health outcomes for individuals with chronic conditions. It involves coordinated care, education, and support to help patients understand their illness and adhere to treatment plans. This can include regular check-ups, medication management, and lifestyle changes to prevent complications.
The goal of disease management is to enhance the quality of life for patients while reducing healthcare costs. Programs often utilize a team of healthcare professionals, including doctors, nurses, and dietitians, to provide comprehensive care tailored to each patient's needs.
