Support Providers by Enabling Guideline Adherence and Collaborative Care

Most providers believe that appropriate treatment improves chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) outcomes, but they are often not aware of the GOLD Strategy Report. Encouraging collaborative approaches to COPD management and educating providers about guideline recommendations may help them meet their goals for prescribing the most appropriate treatment.

BI can help you use your EHR to support care in concordance with evidence-based recommendations and meet other population health goals:
