Disease Management Programs for Employer Groups

With more than eighteen months of success serving employer groups in different industries and different populations, we now have available outcome data to support our success!

Like any other organization, cost effective healthcare is crucial during these times of double-digit rate increases and soaring medical expenses. Illustrating the affect of our Asthma and COPD Disease Management programs on eight separate employer groups, we know we can bring about positive outcomes.

Beyond the obvious value of less hospital and ER utilization, employees are reporting a higher quality of life and greater satisfaction with their health plan.

Here is what some of our participants and clients had to say:

"Working with a nurse from National Jewish, I learned the importance of recognizing the signs of a possible asthma attack. Today I am healthier and happier to have my asthma under control" – Tamara, Ohio

"The nurses are so pleasant and so knowledgeable, they were instrumental in helping me manage my daughter's asthma more effectively!" – Karen, California

"As a major employer in the State of Maryland, we continue to absorb huge premium increases each year. Targeting chronic conditions with a disease management approach has helped us to reduce medical expenditures significantly." – Frank, Maryland

National Jewish Disease Management programs offer comprehensive support tools to employees to help educate and reinforce good self management of their respiratory disease. The result is fewer costly hospitalizations and emergency room visits, less time away from work and higher satisfaction with employee benefits. We also provide a short and simple implementation process. The satisfaction rate of participants in the program has averaged 95% or higher for the last eight years!
