The Institute of Medicine describes self-management as “tasks that individuals must undertake to live well with one or more chronic conditions.” The concept includes a wide range of behaviors that individuals might focus on to maintain or improve their health, like diet, exercise, sleep, social outlets, and stress reduction. Health coaching and wellness planning programs have been shown to increase self-management skills as well as quality of life and achievement of health goals.
In this event, Judith Cook, PhD, will answer questions on how health coaching and wellness planning can increase the engagement of individuals dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid in self-management activities. Submit questions in advance using any of these options:
- Send an email with your questions to RIC@Lewin.com.
- Direct message @Integrate_care on Twitter.
- Include your question in the designated textbox during registration.
