Population Health and the Future of Healthcare

Starting with a working definition, this comprehensive work defines the  attributes of the population health model. It clarifies what population  health is and is not. It discusses health disparities and the social  determinants of health and illness and provides new ways of moving  forward towards a more sustainable healthcare model in a changing  society, thereby pointing out the importance of multi-sector  collaboration for collective impact for community health improvement.  The book takes this further by providing sources of data to support the  population health model. As such, this book provides a must-read for  students and anyone working, teaching or consulting in population  healthcare.
