Class Description
Listening to Employers: How Health Systems Can Support Population Health Management: The continued pressure to manage healthcare costs and maximize workforce productivity has caused employers to broaden their participation in population health management for their employees. Managing the health of a defined population requires attention to issues of access, cost and quality. In addition to traditional work injury prevention and management programs, employers are expanding the services offered to employees to include health promotion, health behavior change, primary care, and other allied health services. Employers may contract with health plans, with niche healthcare providers or with local health systems to design and offer health services by listening to meet the needs of employees while achieving the goals of the employer. This program focuses on understanding the need of employers in managing workforce health and discusses how healthcare organizations can partner with and support employers in population health management. Join Central Illinois American College of Healthcare Executives and Don Damron, Dan Hoodin, Julie Willems Van Dijk, and Ryan Nellis for this 90-minute webinar, including Q&A, to service-line strategies to thrive in an competitive industry.
