NEW POPULATION HEALTH MANAGEMENT RESOURCES AVAILABLE TO AHCA/NCAL MEMBERS

AHCA/NCAL has launched the first phase of its Population Health Management (PHM) Innovation Lab. Phase I contains free “AHCA/NCAL Member Only” foundational resources designed to introduce AHCA/NCAL assisted living, nursing facility and intermediate care facility members and their staff to the wide array of PHM models.

CMS continues to drive the healthcare system to one of value by shifting financial risk to providers through a range of fee-for-service (FFS) and managed care models. PHM is the application of interventions and strategies to improve the health outcomes and manage the costs of a targeted group.

Phase I PHM Innovation Lab resources are ideal for familiarizing owners, operators, administrators and LTC managers about the fundamentals of various PHM models and how these models can better serve LTC organizations, residents, and families. The PHM Innovation Lab Phase I contains six different subject area modules with corresponding educational components including webinars and briefs.

Members will need to login with their AHCA/NCAL usernames and passwords to access these free PHM Innovation Lab materials. For assistance obtaining AHCA/NCAL usernames and passwords, members should email educate@ahca.org with their name and facility contact information.
