Disease Management Program for Chronic Conditions
MILA offers disease management programs to assist
persons with three different categories of disease through
CIGNA’s program entitled, “Wellaware for Better
Health:”
- Coronary Health Disease;
- Diabetes Mellitus; and
- Low Back Pain.
The program is completely voluntary for persons in the
Premier, Basic or Core Plans with these conditions. If
CIGNA detects that you have one of these three conditions,
a representative of the program will invite you to
participate. If you have not received an invitation and you
would like to participate, let MILA know.
The program is managed for each person by a nurse who
will call you on the phone at regular intervals. This nurse
will supply a variety of disease appropriate tools to assist
you and your physician in making wise treatment choices
in your case and in implementing those choices.
