Patient will work with a health coach to improve self-management skills, and receive usual pre-transplant education.

Patients will receive usual pre-transplant education.

Patients will work with a health coach by telephone for up to 12 sessions over a 12-16 week period.

Participants will complete questions comprising the CRQ Mastery subdomain (7,10,13, and 19) of a 20-item Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire (CRQ) at baseline and after the 12-week intervention. CRQ Mastery subscores measure self-management abilities and range from 1 to 7, with higher scores indicating higher self-efficacy. The minimum clinically important difference is 0.5.

Participants will complete questions comprising the CRQ Emotional Function subdomain (6,9,12,14,16,18, and 20) of a 20-item Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire (CRQ) at baseline and after the 12-week intervention (or 12-16 weeks from baseline). CRQ Emotional Function subscores measure emotional health and range from 1 to 7, with higher scores indicating better emotional health. The minimum clinically important difference is 0.5.

Participants will complete a 20-item Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire (CRQ) at baseline and at three to six months post-transplant. CRQ composite scores measure health-related quality of life and range from 4 to 28, with higher scores indicating better QOL. The minimum clinically important difference is 2.0. The intervention (or control) phase is 12-16 weeks, but patients will be followed until they are one-year post-lung transplant. Since timing of lung transplant is unknown, the timing of this measurement could range from months to several years after enrollment.
