Overview

As economies scramble to evolve payment, quality and access issues, there is a widespread movement towards value-based purchasing. As a result, hundreds of population health models have been designed to streamline patient care, reduce adverse events, avoid readmissions and improve outcomes.
Healthcare providers share a common struggle in identifying and implementing processes, applications, tools, technologies and systems necessary to achieve these goals. A pivotal component of this transformation is population health management, which is rapidly emerging as a required core competency in this developing environment.

The PopHealth Management Summit

The PopHealth Management Summit is one of three innovative events that comprise the HIMSS Connected Health Conference – an all-inclusive opportunity for learning, sharing and engaging how technology is enabling the positive transformation of this critical area of health and healthcare.
