While we all depend on healthcare organizations to help us stay healthy, the current model overwhelmingly emphasizes treatment of illnesses and injuries that have already occurred. This widespread reactive approach to providing health-related services has created a healthcare system that more effectively functions to manage disease and delay death than preempt the underlying causes of these conditions before they reach the point where serious medical intervention is necessary. Further complicating matters are the ways that traditional healthcare services and systems are regulated, paid for, and discussed in the United States, which all help create paradoxical incentives to care for disease instead of promoting a comprehensive vision of health. In this recorded webinar, Todd Davenport, PT, DPT, MPH, OCS, presents a new framework for rehabilitation organizations to implement population health strategies that promote health, reduce disparities, and grow their business. Todd will examine population health management models, discuss the causes of inefficiency in traditional models, and provide concrete examples to help participants evaluate their own organizational practices for opportunities to incorporate upstream approaches to care. The presentation will be followed by a Q&A session.
