Despite proven benefits, the proportion of people with COPD who receive Pulmonary Rehabilitation (PR) is very small. The current model of a center-based PR program fails to address the needs of many patients with COPD. After the COVID epidemic, telehealth is an option for individuals referred to patients referred to center based rehabilitation. The direct referral to home-based, unsupervised PR has been proposed as an alternative model to hospital-based programs and has been found to be safe and effective. The refined home-based PR program from the pilot portion of the study supported by a separate grant mechanism (R61HL142933/NCT03865329) will be tested in this second part randomized control study. Subjects with a COPD-related hospitalization (exacerbation or pneumonia) will be randomized after hospital discharge to either home-based PR or Choice (referral to conventional center-based PR or telehealth-based PR).
