Specialized Disease Management Services

Outpatient Pulmonary Services
Lung Disease claims more than 300,000 lives in America every year and is the third leading cause of death in the United States. The direct and indirect economic cost attributable to lung disease totals billions annually.

Hospitals have a unique opportunity to develop cost effective Outpatient Pulmonary Services to the communities served. The outpatient continuum consists of conditioning, education and maintenance.  For some patients, Outpatient Pulmonary Services can also be a continuation of the therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation begun on an inpatient basis.
