Population Health Management: Key Strategies to Mitigate the Impact of the Global Health Emergency
Telehealth solutions during the pandemic have played a significant role by bridging the Patient-Provider gap, while seamlessly accelerating collaboration and improving outcomes at scale.
Population health management requires a confluence of intensive collaboration, advanced analytics, next-gen technologies and various other components that makes it challenging for most of the healthcare organizations. This is even more difficult in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic that has shook the world and has created a ripple effect on especially the healthcare ecosystem.
Telehealth solutions during the pandemic have played a significant role by bridging the Patient-Provider gap, while seamlessly accelerating collaboration and improving outcomes at scale. However, there has been a remarkable shift in the screening behaviors of healthcare consumers across the globe. Consider the fact that there has been a steep decline of a staggering 94% in cancer screenings in the U.S in 2020.
Population Health Management during a global pandemic is not an easy feat and requires a new and innovative approach. This is also due to the massive volumes of structured and unstructured data generated by Social Determinants of Health (SDOH). Reports suggest that the economically backward communities are the most impacted when compared to their affluent peers during the pandemic.
