Advancing care
Numerous initiatives to improve the treatment of patients with lung diseases are underway at Advocate Health Care. Here are a couple examples:

- Advocate Physician Partners has taken the initiative to develop and manage programs for lung health in asthma management and smoking cessation. These programs exceed national averages and are models for the best practices to help patients improve their health.
