Preparing the organization to succeed under accountable care

Careful population management critical to future success

Hospitals that improve their population management stand to gain more than just employee benefits savings. In the dawning era of accountable care, providers will bear responsibility—as well as significant financial and market risk—for delivering and coordinating high-quality care at low cost.

Refine population management ‘at home’ to gain strategic advantage

Hospitals and health systems that have effectively reined in cost inflation, provided evidence-based care, and managed chronic diseases will be able to negotiate “accountable” contracts from a position of strength, fueling future success.

Hospitals can take an essential step toward this vision by honing their population management skills—with their own employee base a perfect test group—to build this competency and establish a track record to leverage in payer negotiations.

Analytics, peer support accelerate progress

Employee Health Compass supports hospitals pursuing this strategy by providing the needed analytic platform and data-mining expertise, best practices, clinical know-how, and outcomes measurement. We also facilitate networking and shared learning, including a special accountable care session at our annual summit.
