January 12, 2010

An industry expert from Aetna discusses what to assess in the elderly population, how to match interventions based on risk score and the impact of this type of initiative on profitability, during "Assessing and Predicting Health Risk in the Elderly," 45-minute webinar on February 10, 2010 at 1:30 pm Eastern sponsored by the Healthcare Intelligence Network.

QUOTE ATTRIBUTABLE TO MELANIE MATTHEWS, HIN EXECUTIVE VP AND COO:

"Developing effective HRAs and mining the resulting data is a strategic means of harnessing healthcare costs and fostering consumer awareness of their own health state. Because the elderly are possibly more prone to health issues than other populations, asssessing health risk scores for these individuals is essential to managing their care and reducing their healthcare utilization."
