Condition Care


Our Condition Care team (CNDC) is based on a system of coordinated care management interventions and communications designed to assist physicians and others in managing members with chronic conditions.

Our mission

The mission of the CNDC program is to improve the health and quality of life for the members served by encouraging member self-care efforts, coordinating healthcare education and providing interventions along the continuum of care.

  • Weight management and smoking cessation education.
  • The New Baby, New LifeSM program to all pregnant members during the prenatal and postpartum period and for newborn members (through the first 90 days of life). For more information, visit the Maternal Services page.
