Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a disease state characterized by airflow that is not fully reversible. Besides problems in physiological functioning, the patient also can experience symptoms, functional impairment and a diminished quality of life (see Vercoulen et al., 2008). Problems in the three latter domains of health status are hardly recognized in usual care, and remain untreated until escalated. This is mainly caused by two phenomena: doctor delay and patient delay. Doctor delay: the physician does not directly identify symptoms, functional impairment, and problems in quality of life. Patient delay: the patient does not report problems in these health status domains.
