“Patient Activation is really the key to what we are doing. I can’t imagine doing coaching without getting some idea of where the patient is in terms of their level of activation. It really helps us target the intervention.”

Measuring & Increasing Health Activation

Engaging people in their health is widely recognized as critical to better health, improved care and more efficient use of healthcare resources. Understanding a person’s self-management ability, as revealed by the Patient Activation Measure® assessment, is crucial to providing support that can make a real difference and  engage individuals in their health. Support tailored to a level of activation understands what an individual is capable of taking to be successful and to take steps toward better health. Insignia’s Coaching for Activation®  model and consumer eHealth program — Flourish™ , are improving care, enabling better health, and driving cost savings.
