HealthPartners: Coaching Patients on Reaching Goals for Better Health
Featuring: Dr. Pat Courneya, Medical Director
HealthPartners’ nurse health coaches check in regularly with diabetes patients, help them manage their complex medical regimens, and offer tools and support for making healthy lifestyle change.
“Health care is an extremely complicated world…It’s very reassuring to me to know that I have a team that extends to my staff, my information systems team, the health plan that works with my patients, and in having that team, I can do a better job at delivering on my personal mission to make sure that that patient has the best chance of living their lives in the healthiest way.”
