While pulmonary rehabilitation provides benefits to people with COPD, only 1.5% have access
to pulmonary rehabilitation each year. The main barriers are related to travel and
transportation. This protocol will evaluate the effect of a home-based rehabilitation system
on quality of life and steps. The system allows for monitoring by a health care system. A
health coach will review the data and provide coaching to facilitate behavioral change and
self-efficacy.

Patients will be randomized to 1 of 2 groups.
