A population's medical need represents its illness burden. Medical demand represents the service level requested for a particular need. Medical care costs are, in large part, a function of need and demand. Our review of health education programs designed to reduce health risks and reduce costs identified thirty-two programs with documented effectiveness, generally achieving claims reductions of 20 percent. Specific program features including chronic disease self-management, risk reduction, and increased self-efficacy appear important. A broadened definition of health promotion focused on increased personal responsibility for health-related actions and directed at improvement of long-term health outcomes also could reduce health care costs.
