Creating a Culture of Health: Advancing Population Health

Speaker:
Janet Tomcavage, RN, MSN 

Description:
Improving the health of populations is a national priority. For case managers, population health demands excellence in communication and patient engagement--and perhaps new technology skills. Whether your “population” is a community, a patient panel, a health plan membership or an accountable care organization’s attribution group, this session will present key concepts in population health and how case managers are working to achieve this aim.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. Describe the concept of population health as it applies to different types of health care organizations;
  2. Discuss the role of patient data and analysis to assess and identify population health needs and establish goals for more efficient care coordination, improved quality of care delivery and better outcomes; and
  3. Explain how organizations use population health tools to develop personalized care plans to improve outcomes and manage total costs across the care continuum.
