population health analytics

Our population health analytics special interest group launched in spring 2023, the result of a conversation at our 2022 Miami conference. The SIG held its first event in April 2023 with an overview of population health principles from J.D. Whitlock of Dayton' Children's hospital. The group, chaired by Martha Sylvia of Medical University of South Carolina, intends to hold quarterly sessions featuring HDAA members talking through their organization's pop health environment.
