Rationale and Purpose of Today’s Webinar • High-cost patients are often high-need patients • Need to identify and target high-need, high-cost individuals to customize interventions to meet their needs • “Identification” and “targeting” not as easy as it sounds • Camden Coalition to develop a Fund-supported analytic toolkit to enable communities to zero in on high-need, high-cost patients, which is just the first step • Today’s objectives: • Learn about the toolkit • Hear how two health systems use analytics to target high-need, high-cost patients
