Population Health

"Population Health" may be defined as 'the health of a population as measured by health status indicators and as influenced by social, economic and physical environments, personal health practices, and individual health capacity and coping skills, human biology, early childhood development and health services.' (Young 2000).

Business Intelligence

Business Intelligence Information Technology is the tools and systems that integrate large, disparate data bases and information systems to support organizational decision making and strategic planning. It is how industry determines evidence based practices through data derived customer profiling, customer support, market research, market segmentation, product profitability, statistical analysis, and inventory and distribution analysis to name a few.

Population Health + Public Health = Business Intelligence

Population Health – Aggregate Health Information / Informatics Science / Modeling Cause & Effect

Public Health – Acting on Findings – Informed Policy

Business Intelligence: Enterprise Information Integration – Statistical and Modeling Sciences - to Drive Decision Making

Population Health Domain Function in RHIOs

Population Health + Public Health = Business Intelligence

Business Intelligence – or Data Analysis & Aggregation on the Population Domain – to Develop Evidence Based Practices

Informs Entire Medical Informatics Spectrum (Cellular, Imaging, Clinical)

Essential to Achieve ROI, Reduce Medical Errors, Improve Efficiency, Quality, Optimize business processes for all stakeholders

Pay for Performance

Population Health Domain is the Metric

Business intelligence provides modeling / relative rate ratios (relative performance)

Uniform system to drive optimization and continuous improvement
