title: A coordinated approach to treat chronic disorders.
abstract: Many non-infectious diseases are the product of similar life-styles and correspond to the same risk factors. WHO has launched Inter-Health, a global initiative directed at a group of such chronic diseases. In view of similarities in their treatment and prevention, the coordinated approach is expected to bring good results.
