This programme is designed to provide an introduction to Population Health and PHM. In this 5-hour introductory session attendees will gain a deeper understanding of:
- The definition and differences between Population Health and Population Health Management
- The importance of changing approach in today’s healthcare environment

Population Health is as an approach to improving wellness which goes beyond the planning of health services – it also takes into account the underlying social, economic and environmental determinants of health.
Population Health Management (PHM) takes this one step further and is a set of disciplines for how we determine the health needs of a population and the process by which local systems deliver an intervention and change. As health becomes a priority across every aspect of citizen life in response to the pandemic, these terms will only become more frequently used as part of a drive to think about good health in a new way.
