How the Program Works
Your doctor's care is important. But so is learning as much as you can about your symptoms or condition, and taking steps to stay well. To get started, we call you to learn about your health history. Then, you talk about your needs with a LifeMasters health professional and decide together what kind of program is best for you. This may mean we call you regularly, keep track of your vital signs and symptoms and send you helpful health information.
We do not replace your relationship with your doctor, but in some instances we keep your doctor up to date about changes in your health. We can also teach you how to monitor your health, including measuring and recording your vital signs and symptoms. Sharing this information with your doctor can improve the care you receive and make you an active partner in managing your health. We understand that no two people are alike. That is why we personalize our program to give you just what you need. A better quality of life is possible when you are a partner in managing your own health.
Why You Should Participate
Imagine for a moment, that you could have your own personal nurse...
- Someone who understands your personal needs
- Someone who would call you on a regular basis to:
- Answer all your health questions and give you advice on ways to stay healthy
- Encourage and support you in achieving your health goals
- Understand your life situation and how it may affect your health
- Give you the latest information about your health condition
- Explain your doctor's treatment plan
- Help you understand all your medications
- Teach you how to track your health
- Answer any questions your family or caregivers have
You would get to keep the same doctor and insurance you have now. And, it would cost you nothing.
