Asthma Research Insight
Our Asthma Management Coach Leandra Tonweber, PA-C, AE-C, recently shared her perspective to Healio.com about a recent study showing frequent asthma attacks can lead to higher corticosteroid doses. Leandra says the use of asthma self-management programs can help patients get a better understanding of their asthma, treatments, and correct medication use.
A ‘Rising Star’
We are honored to earn recognition for our commitment to fostering nonprofit leadership and health equity.

What to do if you have difficulty affording the asthma and allergy care you need? Allergy & Asthma Network partnered with the National Association of Medication Access & Patient Advocacy (NAMAPA) to develop a new Health Insurance Toolkit, sponsored by Amgen. The Toolkit helps you advocate for yourself when dealing with health insurance providers
