Introducing the health coach at a primary care practice: impact on quality and cost (Part 1).
Hosp Top. 2011 Jan-Mar; 89(1):16-22.HT

Abstract

The cost of healthcare in U.S. is a poor value proposition. One of the primary goals of the healthcare reform act is to reduce cost while improving healthcare quality. We believe that adding a health coach will help in achieving this goal. The health coach is a medical professional who supports both the physician and the patient by meeting previously established goals. This research presents and analyzes the key roles of a health coach in a primary care practice.
