Alex D'souzaManaging Editoreditor@healthcaretechoutlook.comOwing to a growing number of patients with chronic diseases that require long term surveillance and extended hospital stays, population health management (PHM) has become a prime necessity. As a result, healthcare providers are doubling down on long-standing efforts to optimize treatment outcomes and their associated costs through segmentation of patient communities. A variety of technologies are used to segment populations and treat their specific illnesses. Data derived from these healthcare technologies help enable clinicians to make informed decisions and deliver better care.PHM software aggregates patient data across health IT systems and provides a comprehensive clinical picture for analysis. These solutions help better predict and manage diseases while also facilitating care delivery across a population. PHM solutions are utilized by healthcare providers and academic institutions alike to increase the quality of care and research health trends within a community. Moreover, paralleling the changes within the industry, PHM tools are becoming more compatible with value-based care models in contrast to more conventional fee-for-service models. This contemporary approach to healthcare allows for a more holistic treatment of patients and enhanced communication between physicians across departments. Currently, the U.S. PHM market is valued at $11.7 billion and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 20.1 percent owing to the growing popularity of the value-based payment model.In the wake of growing interest in PHM, Healthcare Tech Outlook has endeavored to highlight some of the path-breaking innovations taking place in the PHM technology arena.
