The mission of healthcare organizations has undergone a remarkable
transformation from curing disease to caring for the well-being of
populations. While health care policy has explored this domain
before, notably in Health Maintenance Organizations, the current
efforts to create Patient-Centered Medical Homes (PCMHs) and
Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) represent a broader effort to
move organizational responsibilities towards population health and
care management. Volume 16 of AHCM presents papers that explore
this topic across various levels of the healthcare system and
employing multiple research designs including case studies,
theoretical pieces, secondary data analyses, survey research and
qualitative methodologies. Aspects of health care organization
discussed in this volume include the PCMH, ACOs, integration with
the public health and mental health systems, hospital-physician
alignment, and resource planning. Population health management is
presented as a factor driving these organizational changes and as a
mechanism to facilitate this change.
