Increase the reach and effectiveness of your disease management programs.

Go-To-Guide

“ The primary driver of soaring health care costs is inadequate investment in prevention, health risk reduction and disease management. These programs do not cost too much, but rather it is far too costly not to implement them.”

Anthony C. Wisniewski, Executive Director of Health Policy, U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Founder and Co-Chair, U.S. Workplace Wellness Alliance

The keys to controlling costs and improving healthcare lie in increased focus on preventive care and chronic disease management. Krames Go-To-Guides can help hospitals and health systems, clinics, and group practices across the country help their patients and communities understand how to manage costly chronic diseases such as asthma, heart disease, diabetes, COPD and heart failure.

The unique format and approach make these interactive tools more effective, engaging and empowering than any educational tools you’ve used in the past for disease management programs.

Effective disease management education has never been more accessible.

Because Krames Go-To-Guides are web-based learning tools, you can effectively and affordably deliver education to a wide patient population. The intuitive interface makes it easy for users to get the information they need in the learning style that best suits them: reading, listening, viewing or any combination of the three.


Involve patients in their care for improved compliance and outcomes.

Krames Go-To-Guides empower patients to manage their chronic conditions. A combination of easy-to-understand information and supporting tools build self-management skills and healthy behaviors that lead to reduced readmissions, improved outcomes and better performance scores. And because the workbooks are self-guided, each patient can learn at his or her own pace.


Quiz

Improve patient satisfaction, build awareness and support your brand.

Along with lowering costs, this contemporary solution demonstrates your commitment to preventive care and disease management in your community. Patients love the multimedia format and interactive tools that give them the confidence to manage their condition. And you can brand Krames Go-To-Guides to your organization by adding your logo.


Capture data and measure results.

In addition to helping you comply with HIPAA regulations, secure user log-ins allow your organization to manage and track patient usage. And you can gauge learning, as well as the effectiveness of the program, with the end-of-chapter quiz scores.

Ask your Krames representative for information about this optional enhancement feature.


Give patients a go-to source for all their disease self-management needs.

There are currently five Krames Go-To-Guides dedicated to supporting self-management for five of the most costly chronic diseases, and some of the leading causes of death in the United States.
