Performance & Measures

Mary is a healthcare manager responsible for overseeing the utilization of services at Norwood Health System’s hospital location. The overflow of emergency room patients has caused issues with wait times, patient care, and patient satisfaction. Many of the patients use the emergency room as a primary source of care because they are uninsured or do not have a primary care doctor to treat non-urgent issues.

John, your supervisor, asks if you can research socialized healthcare. Although socialized healthcare is not in the United States, he suggests a hospital-based model that simulates a socialized healthcare environment could provide some insight into resolving the ER problem. Socialized healthcare essentially provides healthcare access to care for all, regardless of ability to pay or cost of care. John believes that being able to provide care to all patients will decrease the “demand” for ER services. Furthermore, impact performance measures for the hospital, such as wait times and patient satisfaction.

Discuss if you support or refute John’s recommendation? Support your response based on the role of the healthcare manager, your research on socialized in the U.S., and potential impact on performance measures.

Explain how that initiative shifts the focus from the individual person to population health. Explain why understanding and incorporating a focus on social determinants of health is vital to affecting population health.

Shifting Toward Population Health

Healthcare administrators direct and coordinate medical services in facilities such as hospitals, public health agencies, and managed care organizations. In order to accomplish this directive, healthcare administrators need to be current on mandates, health initiatives, and population health programs. This requires the exploration of a variety of resources on health initiatives and public health programs.

The term population health was introduced in 2003 by Dave Kindig and Greg Stoddart who defined the term as “the health outcome of a group of individuals, including the distribution of such outcomes within the group” (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2018, para. 1). Nash, Fabius, Skoufalos, Clarke, and Horowitz (2016) argue that the only way to improve the total health of the United States is to shift our focus from healthcare that is reactive to healthcare that proactive and promotes health and wellness. We spend a lot of time treating and focusing on a patient’s disease/illness and spend little time focusing on the conditions that contribute to the disease/illness. For that reason, it is important to understand social determinants of health (SDOH) and how they factor into the comprehensive picture of population health (Zangerle, 2016).

Post a single 3- or 4-paragraph response that addresses the following prompts (your Instructor will notify you of the due date):

Choose a federal or state initiative that focuses on population health – choose a topic that interests you
Explain how that initiative shifts the focus from the individual person to population health
Evaluate the importance of shifting from individual health to population health
Consider discussing how you, as an administrator, could collaborate with other healthcare disciplines to ensure the success of the initiative you selected
Explain why understanding and incorporating a focus on social determinants of health is vital to affecting population health.
