		<description>Thank you for your comment.  Briefly, I would work with that physician&#039;s nurse or office manager to explain the program and its benefits; the major benefit for the physician might be to save him/her time for other patient-related efforts. I hope that strategy helps you provide a valuable service for his/her patient.</description>

		<description>I would like your thoughts interacting with physicians who believe they may not need a collaborative approach because they prefer to work independently without the assistance of healthcare companies who genuinly want to assist physicians by providing for their patient a Disease Management Educator who will provide additional education and support that patient for 6-12 months.  (longer if needed)  - most of this is done by telephone and mailings of educational material.  There are many physicians it seems who are resistant to the offer and are not interested in even learning about the program which is based on the NIH current guidelines of care and literature.</description>
