Physician support of patient self-management is a key element in effective treatment for those with multiple chronic conditions. Patients who are able to effectively self-manage have been proven to reduce the need for hospitalizations, emergency department use, and overall managed care costs. Self-management is defined as the ability of the patient to deal with all that a chronic illness entails, including symptoms, treatment, physical and social consequences, and lifestyle changes. With effective self-management, the patient can monitor his or her condition and make whatever cognitive, behavioral, and emotional changes are needed to maintain a satisfactory quality of life.
