Effective chronic disease management programs are key to improving clinical outcomes and achieving healthcare reform. 75% of healthcare spend is on patients with one or more chronic disease, and healthcare is 5 times more expensive for a chronic disease patient than someone with no chronic diseases. Additionally, 7 out of 10 deaths is due to chronic disease. The current healthcare system is fragmented and does not effectively manage chronic diseases.
