Integrated Care for COPDRice et al. AJRCCM 182;890 2010 • Design: 743 patients randomized to: • Integrated Care • Usual Care • Primary Outcome: COPD-related hospital/ER visits • Results • Decreased COPD-related hospital/ER visits (P<0.001) • Improved quality of life (P<0.001) • Trend toward decreased mortality (P=0.09)
Integrated Care for COPDFan et al. Ann Intern Med 156;673 2012 • Design: 960 patients randomized to: • Integrated Care • Usual Care • Primary Outcome: Time to first COPD hospitalization • Results • Stopped at 44% enrollment • Increased deaths in integrated care (n=28) vs. usual care (n=10); P=0.0003 “Patients were advised to call their case manager when they started treatment for an exacerbation and if symptoms did not improve.”
Did Patients Contact Coordinators When Advised? • Why? • Denial? • Overconfidence? 600 total exacerbations 27 weekday calls (4.5%) No documentation for after-hours calls Vandivier RW, Ann Intern Med 157;530, 2012

Proactive Integrated Care Summary • Increases guideline-based therapy • Decreases symptoms • Improves quality of life • Decreases healthcare utilization • May improve survival
Opinion Hospitals need a financial incentive to keep patients out of the emergency room Integrated care + telemonitoring will likely play an important role in management High quality research is needed to identify the right approaches, systems and patients
