Schaller Anderson's Pathway to COPD Care^TM

If you have lung disease, we can help you. Another name for lung disease is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD. A lot of people live quite well with COPD and we can help you live well too.

When a person has COPD, their lungs don't work as well as they used to. It happens slowly, so the person doesn't know there is a problem right away. Some people's COPD is worse than others'. That is why everyone gets different kinds of help to treat their COPD. We will work with you and your doctor to find the best treatment for you.

Once your doctor tells you that you have COPD, or you tell your new doctor or your health plan that you have COPD, we will see if you are low-risk or high-risk for problems with COPD. If you are high-risk, one of our nurses will call you to see if you need extra help. We will talk with you about not smoking and find out whether you need oxygen, medicine or other treatment.

If you have COPD, it is important to learn as much as you can about it. We want to help you take care of yourself.
