Journal Club: "Evaluating a Nonemergency Medical Transportation Benefit
for Accountable Care Organization Members"

The centerpiece of the March Journal Club meeting is "Evaluating A
Nonemergency Medical Transportation Benefit For Accountable Care
Organization (ACO) Members." In the paper, appearing in the March 2022
issue of Health Affairs, the authors examine how participants in one ACO
associated with a large academic health system use and rate its
transportation benefit, and what effects it has had on costs, access,
and health outcomes.

Please join Seth Berkowitz, an assistant professor in the Division of
General Medicine and Clinical Epidemiology, at the University of North
Carolina School of Medicine, on March 22 for a detailed discussion of
the paper's data, methods, and conclusions. Health Affairs Senior
Editor Kathleen Haddad will host.

Date: Tuesday, March 22, 2022
Time: 3:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. (Eastern)
Place: Online details will be shared with registrants 24 hours in
advance of the event

Lunch and Learn: Population Health's Next Big Question: Where Would
You Put The Money?

The field of population health management starts with the idea that
there is an optimal balance of investments in the multiple determinants
of health (e.g., behavior, environment, socioeconomic status, medical
care) to maximize overall health outcomes at the population level.

In their recent Forefront piece, "Can The Population Health "Fantasy
Equation" Be Solved? Does It Need To Be?"
,
David Kindig and John Mullahy of the University of Wisconsin, Madison,
ask: Why is it so hard to develop a so-called 'fantasy equation'
that might allow us to define that optimal balance of investments with
any precision?

They describe the many factors that make it so hard to implement
comprehensive population health strategies in practice, and provide a
roadmap that accounts for the seeming impossibility of developing such
an equation.

Join us on March 30 when Health Affairs Deputy Editor Rob Lott hosts
David Kindig and John Mullahy, as well as Sanne Magnan, senior fellow at
the HealthPartners Institute and former Minnesota Commissioner of
Health, for a discussion of the Forefront article and the future of the
field of population health.

Date: Wednesday, March 30, 2022
Time: 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. (Eastern)
Place: Online details will be shared with registrants 24 hours in
advance of the event
