A crucial tool for managing populations requires the use of a predictive modeler. The modeler should consider proportionally physical, behavioral, and social conditions. Additional components include:

• Pharmacy activity and adherence
• Lab/Radiology
• Outpatient and admission activity
• Specific measures (eg. HEDIS)

This population assessment creates many identified groups at risk based on:

• Weighted proportions of the above elements (physical, behavioral, social)
• A threshold for ER and admission activity in a defined time frame
• Frequency of non-adherence of prescriptions
• The creation of new programs

This also allows the flexibility to assess provider efficiency and connectivity with the population.

These items are a wonderful marketing tool with readily visible value to existing and new customers/clients.
