Brief summary
The clinical objectives of this study are to determine whether utilization of the Wellinks COPD Solution can improve quality of life for patients with COPD, can reduce healthcare resource utilization over time, and can improve pulmonary function as measured by connected devices. The nonclinical objectives of this study are to describe the experience of patients using the Wellinks Solution through the assessment of patient engagement with the solution, as well as by patient-reported satisfaction with the solution and their perceived value (e.g., willingness to pay). Qualitative feedback on the features and functionality of the Wellinks Solution will be solicited.
