People’s health is changing, and care needs are evolving. Our lifestyles are crucial to our long-term health and the health inequality gap is getting bigger. We all need to be more proactive in responding to that change. Population health management (PHM) is key to making it happen sooner. It actively helps to reduce health inequalities and offers proactive, personalised, and preventative healthcare for every community.

Below is our PHM cycle, made up of five key elements.

The image below breaks down each of those five elements in more detail.

 

PHM techniques will transform the way we work and the way we care for people. It’s for everyone working in integrated care, striving to improve health outcomes for all.
