Population Health: Five Years of Learnings (Video)

Nirav Vakharia, MD, Associate Chief of Value Based Operations, does a look-back over a five-year growth path for Cleveland Clinic’s Population Health team. He shares his thoughts along with Michelle Medina, MD, and Adam Myers, MD. They discuss: the team-based care model, aligning the operating model with the care model, and discovering patient and community needs and desires.

He says the work consisted of the addition of new team members, with each one trained to provide services that empower patients to manage their own health and wellness, the goal being to improve outcomes and lower costs.

Find out what surprised them in the initial implementation, what fell short and how they worked through the details.
