    Author: Huffman MH.
    Journal: Home Healthc Nurse; 2009 Sep; 27(8):490-6; quiz 496-8. PubMed ID: 19745624.
    Abstract:
    Health coaching, its origin from motivational interviewing, enhances patient self-management of chronic conditions by improving patient compliance and outcomes, and reducing costs. How health coaching has achieved this success and why traditional patient teaching has fallen short is explored. Dr. William Miller, an originator of the motivational interviewing concept, also shares his insights and thoughts in a brief question and answer session with the author.
