Lifestyle choices and chronic conditions are now the biggest threats to public health and sustainable health care costs. CCP prepares the interdisciplinary health care team—and wellness, disease management and chronic care specialists—for the new environment. In the U.S., with 75% of all health care costs due to chronic disease and an estimated 85% of avoidable costs due to health behaviors, government and employer purchasers are changing how providers are measured and reimbursed to encourage change. Chronic care improvement also lies at the heart of new models such as the patient-centered medical home (PCMH) and the accountable care organization (ACO). Their success will be determined by their effectiveness routinely delivering recommended medical care—and applying evidence-based steps for patient engagement, lifestyle management, treatment adherence and decision and self-care support.

CCP 5.0: Revised and Updated Learning Model for 2013
CCP 5.0 includes the definitive manual for health coaching across the care continuum—with medical care guidelines and shared decision-making tools for 30 chronic conditions. Each module is accompanied by interactive online learning activities to build new skills in four core competencies: 1.) Population Health Improvement, 2.) Chronic Conditions, 3.) Lifestyle Management, and 4.) Health Coaching. Health coaching scripts, audio and video samples help the learner practice MI communication skills, spot MI consistent (MIC) and MI Inconsistent (MIIN) approaches, change closed to open assessment questions, among other topics. The 2012 Miller and Rollnick's health coaching framework is used as a step-by-step health coaching guide (MI remains the only validated approach to health coaching, linked with better patient outcomes in 300+ clinical trials). In CCP 5.0, participants can tailor their learning experience by choosing expert presentations aligned with their role on the team and interests—each delivered by an expert faculty contributor—from Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Harvard, Johns Hopkins, among others.

CCP for Teams & Organizations As in medical care, the best health coaching outcomes are achieved when practitioners routinely apply interventions proven to work—approaches which have been tested in real world clinical trials conducted by experts in the field peer-reviewed. As with medical care, poor outcomes in wellness, disease management or chronic care programs can often be attributed to gaps in proficiency and/or adherence of staff to brief, highly effective chronic care and health behavior change steps.
