Affordable, quality healthcare is the goal of most providers caring for patients. One of the keys to improving patient outcomes and streamlining the practice’s operations may be population health management. A relatively new term, population health management has actually become widely used. However, precisely what population health management means is not clear even among healthcare professionals. Healthcare IT News reports that the “concept of population health first came about in 2003 when David Kindig and Greg Stoddart defined it as ‘the health outcome of a group of individuals, including the distribution of such outcomes within the group.’” Some feel that this definition is overly focused on outcomes and does not describe fully the need for the physician to effectively manage the

Independent physicians are experiencing burnout at increasing rates, primarily because of the burden of administrative reporting and regulations but also because of their increased patient load. At the same time, patients want a higher quality relationship with their physician. They want better access to their provider and they want their provider to take the time to listen to them.

The ideal solution for both provider and patient may be the hybrid concierge practice. The concierge practice relies on patient membership fees, which can range from a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars a month. The
