WellMed Medical Group

Disease Management

The WellMed Disease Management Department is a referral program open to all eligible patients who live with one or more covered chronic illnesses. Our Disease Management Nurses (Health Coaches), work directly with primary care physicians in a team approach to identify chronically ill patients to closely monitor, educate and mentor patients about effectively living with their diseases such as:

• Diabetes
• Congestive Heart Failure
• Ischemic Heart Disease
• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease/Asthma

Our Medical Home Disease Management teams support you in your effort to improve your general well-being through the use of the Chronic Care Model during planned scheduled wellness visits. During these visits you will have the opportunity to spend time with your primary care physician to discuss your chronic illness, medications and treatment options available.

Our Primary Care Physicians and Health Coaches work very hard to stay aware of the best and most current methods with which to assist you in the management of your life with a chronic illness.
