Health Coaching's Effect on Healthcare Utilization and Spend

[Melanie Matthews]

How do healthcare organizations use health coaching, and on which key
behaviors do coaching interventions focus? By which modalities do they
administer and monitor health coaching in their populations and how do
they measure its effectiveness?

The Healthcare Intelligence Network set out to answer these questions
and others during its annual Health Coaching e-survey. Health Coaching
in 2009: Banking on Behavior Change is an executive summary of
responses from 212 healthcare organizations to the July 2009 e-survey
on trends in the field of health coaching and its effect on healthcare
utilization and spend.

An executive summary of the survey results is available for download
