Health Dialog helps patients become more engaged in their healthcare and work more effectively with their physicians. We don’t provide medical advice or clinical care. We provide evidence-based, unbiased information and support, including Health Coaching and other tools and resources, to help patients make the most of each office visit.
Health Dialog’s Collaborative Health SupportSM program supports patients across a broad spectrum of healthcare needs. The program offers 24/7 access to Health Coaches – specially trained healthcare professionals such as nurses, dietitians, and respiratory therapists. They provide evidence-based information and support to help patients work with their physicians to address a wide range of issues, such as managing their chronic conditions, evaluating different treatment options, finding the best way to care for an injury, understanding symptoms, and much more. This information does not replace physician care. Rather, it prepares patients to make healthcare decisions in partnership with their physician. This collaborative approach to healthcare, known as the Shared Decision-Making® approach, was developed by the non-profit Foundation for Informed Medical Decision Making, founded by Drs. Albert Mulley, Jr. and John Wennberg.
