TA 201: Pathways to Population Health

Overview

While health care leaders increasingly recognize the opportunity to improve the health of the communities they serve, the pathways to do so remain the roads less traveled. In the words of one CEO, “I’m on the bus for population health; in fact, I’m driving the bus. But I need help shifting my core business — all of which focuses on sick care — to focus on health and well-being. I need a roadmap to help me know how to do that.” In this course, we present a roadmap for those involved in setting and operationalizing their organization’s population health strategy. It’s a new way for health care change agents at all stages of their population health journeys to organize efforts and guidance to start making improvements in health, well-being, and equity for patients, populations, and communities.
