Because of the changes of public's lifestyles and demographical structure, the incidence rates of various chronic diseases increase as the publics' life expectancy increases. The issues on chronic patient care that the global public health encounters today become urgent. To overcome the impact of the chronic disease, to delay the onset of chronic diseases, and to prevent chronic disease through effective health care strategies and management have become the imperative subjects in global public health. The chronic diseases not only damage patient's health, but also bring the family and the national health care system a burden to some extent as well. The care needs of the chronic patients are lifelong, and the traditional health care system has its difficulty in meeting their needs. The purpose of this study is to probe a chronic care model from a view point of chronic care management. This article also reviews current chronic care status and related concepts. The author expects that the multi-pronged strategies for chronic care can provide readers with a different thinking mode for the vision of the management for the patient with chronic disease.
