The Future of Population Health and Disease Management in 2010, and Beyond
[By Ann Miller; RN, MHA]
According to our two new books, Forward contributor David B. Nash MD MBA FACP Dean, Jefferson School of Population Heath at Thomas Jefferson University, states that chronic diseases are the nation’s most overwhelming healthcare cost drivers.
The Statistics
In fact, we’ve all heard the statistics which suggest that 75% of health care costs are spent on chronic care treatments.
Chronic Care and Prevention
And so, the upcoming Chronic Care and Prevention Congress will seek to lead the nation in developing best practices for the treatment and prevention of chronic disease. David will give the Opening Keynote Address on Thursday, May 13th 2010 entitled The Future of Population Health and Disease Management in 2010 and Beyond.
