CCA Forum, The Value of Population Health: Implementation Matters
CCA Forum, The Value of Population Health: Implementation Matters

This nationally prominent group of researchers has once again demonstrated that employers can bend the cost curve and improve outcomes, too.

Post this

Washington, DC (PRWEB) August 14, 2013 -- Employers can have a significant role in improving efforts to prevent and treat diseases such as cancer by introducing and supporting health promotion programs in the workplace. Together, companies can influence health care policies and reimbursement and industry practices to support the fight against cancer. Johnson & Johnson's active role in implementing the CEO Cancer Gold Standard program is described in an article in Population Health Management, a peer-reviewed journal from Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. The article is available free on the Population Health Management website.

Rachel Henke, PhD and coauthors representing Truven Health Analytics (Cambridge, MA and Washington, DC), Emory University (Atlanta, GA), and Johnson & Johnson (Southwest Ranches, FL, Mansfield, MA, and New Brunswick, NJ), focus on how J&J has incorporated the industry-leading standards developed by the CEO Roundtable on Cancer into its existing Live for Life worksite health promotion program.

In the article “Employers' Role in Cancer Prevention and Treatment—Developing Success Metrics for Use by the CEO Roundtable on Cancer,” the authors describe the “5 Pillars” of the CEO Cancer Gold Standard program, the framework J&J created to monitor the use and effectiveness of the cancer prevention and treatment enhancement efforts it introduced, and examples of the data collected by the company.

"This nationally prominent group of researchers has once again demonstrated that employers can bend the cost curve and improve outcomes, too,” says Editor-in-Chief David B. Nash, MD, MBA, Dean and Dr. Raymond C. and Doris N. Grandon Professor, Jefferson School of Population Health, Philadelphia, PA.

The Care Continuum Alliance, the voice of population health, is holding an Employers Training Institute focused on worksite wellness programs, at its annual conference, CCA Forum 2013, to be held October 23-25, in Scottsdale, Arizona, with the theme, The Value of Population Health: Implementation Matters.

The Employers Training Institute, Know What You Pay For: Roadmap to Assess Success of Employer Offered Wellness Programs, will take place on Wednesday, Oct. 23, 2013, 1:00-5:00 pm. Employers who register for the institute get a full access pass to the entire conference.

This training institute will equip employers with a “how to” to assess employee health management programs offered to them by health plans and other vendors. HR managers, employee benefits specialists, as well as organizations and vendors new to the population health management space will benefit from the in-depth analysis and interactive exercises on evaluation design, data and analysis, study methodology, measuring behavior change, value metrics, and more.

The registration for the annual conference is now open and members of the media can request press credentials.
