Hi everyone! I am trying to plan a program evaluation of patients with chronic illnesses. That intervention is aiming to improve their self-management of chronic illnesses. However, I have met trouble with the construction of outcomes. Could you please give me some advice? I want to make sure I think ahead before its implementation.

Thank you for the great suggestion!

Add oil!

Thanks a lot!

The potential choice depends on the program's main goals. Based on the purpose and target groups of your intervention, you may consider the following ones:
1) Patients' knowledge and self-efficacy have increased.
2) Patients' health-related behaviors have changed.
3) Rates of provider adherence to guidelines have increased.
4) Disease control has improved.
5) Patient health outcomes have improved.
6) Patient satisfaction has improved.
7) Utilization has declined, and patient productivity has improved.
8) Health care costs have declined.
