What are the most important
complementary services?
Those that are safe, effective at a minimal cost:
• Group health improvement activities - group education
- support group, study group
- exercise
- mind/body - Yoga, Tai Chi, Qigong, meditation
• Counseling or coaching - nutrition, informed choice
• Proactive triage - nurse on phone, demand management
Medical visits - 75% could be handled through
self-care, 25% require contact with a provider
(no visit), 10% require an office visit (physician
or
nurse practitioner).
