Disease Management

Disease Management

Disease management is a program designed to help unite health care providers with their patients in order to provide more personalized and successful management of chronic diseases.  The program is completely elective and is provided to the patient free of cost.

A patient enrolled in this program will be paired with a Care Coordinator.  The Care Coordinator will work one-on-one with the patient to help identifiy obstacles and goals in the patient's disease management process.  The Coordinator will be in contact with the patient's primary care provider, any specialists the patient sees and any family members the patient feels important to involve in their disease management.  When all providers and specialists work as a medical team the patient receives more inclusive and efficient care.

Managing a disease can be overwhelming to a person, but it doesn't have to be.  Your care providers at France Avenue Family Physicians are dedicated to providing you with the best medical care available and offering the patients the individual support they deserve.

This program is open to any patient who is excited and determined to make a difference in his or her quality of life through disease management.  For more information please contact your health care provider.
