About This Trial
Study Description: My Lung Health Coach (MLHC) is a virtual COPD education and self-management support program delivered through one-on-one sessions with a Certified Respiratory Educator (CRE) over 12 weeks. It includes six sessions that cover essential COPD topics such as: Basic COPD knowledge, Smoking cessation, Medications (inhalers, oxygen), Physical activity, Mental health and wellness, Vaccinations, Symptom self-management, Nutrition, Travel, and Long-term planning (including end-of-life care). The investigators have also developed a companion app to MLHC integrated into the electronic patient record that patients can access through their EPIC MyHealth app on the participants phones, tablets, or desktops. This study will evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of MLHC and the companion app.
