Alberta Strategy to Help Manage Asthma (ASTHMA): a provincial initiative to improve outcomes for individuals with asthma.
As society struggles with escalating healthcare costs, and a general increase in the prevalence as well as the morbidity of common chronic conditions such as asthma and diabetes, patient health management programs offer new opportunities to improve the process of care, create efficiencies in the healthcare system and enhance the outcomes of patients suffering from these conditions.
