THE EIGHTEENTH POPULATION HEALTH COLLOQUIUM
Successful population health programs require involvement from all stakeholders within healthcare, working together to improve the health of our communities.
Practicing population health has never been more important! As healthcare leaders, we understand the implications of socioeconomic disparities, and are working to transform care delivery to meet the needs of the community. We see the opportunities that will arise from new advances in technology, data analytics and precision medicine. We know that fixing our fragmented health system will help to control costs and improve the quality (and outcomes) of care. All of this is paving the way for a new healthcare system. The Colloquium will showcase the groundbreaking work of organizations who are leading health transformation through new care delivery models, creative partnerships and new data and technology innovations.
The 18th Population Health Colloquium will bring together healthcare providers, payers, pharmaceutical executives, leading technology and solutions companies, academia and government to highlight advances in population health. Leaders within the industry will share best practices, case studies, expert insights and industry trends.
