Chronic Care
Model
The MacColl
Institute for HealthCare Innovation, at Group Health Cooperative
in Seattle, supports an extensive Web site on improving chronic
illness management. Improving
Chronic Illness Care (ICIC) is a national program office of
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation based at The MacColl Institute.
The Chronic
Disease Management Model was developed to provide a framework
of best practices in managing chronic diseases. The model shows
the areas of conventional practice that need to change, and identifies
necessary changes to improve the system to support better health
outcomes. This model has been adopted for use in British Columbia.
For more information, see British
Columbia's Chronic Care Model.
