Part of the Protection, Health and Care Conference 2020 webinar series
Population health management considers the distribution of health outcomes within a population and how to impact these outcomes in the most optimal way for the group as a whole. The initial report of the Population Health Management Working Party focusses on the specific topic of impactability modelling, an area where actuarial skills can help bring insight to some of the strategic challenges the NHS and other health systems are facing. This session will provide an overview of this Working Party's research including defining impactability and impactability modelling, discussing some examples of specific modelling approaches, considering the practical challenges across the NHS as well as wider public perception and ethical issues.
