Health Care reform redefined how individuals can obtain health insurance. Providers will receive incentives on positive outcomes which will lead to their increased interest in improving the health not only of the patients they visit in their offices but the patients they seldom see. The information available about their patients is growing rapidly and can be harvested from sources that are not typically linked to medical records. In this session you will learn about emerging sources of data and the use of advanced analytics that can lead to the proactive improvement of population health and wellness.
