We are an innovative and collaborative department embedded throughout UVA Health, our communities, and The Commonwealth that aims to ensure healthy outcomes for all patients.
Our programs address the increased prevalence of chronic disease management, patient access to primary and specialty care, and care delivery beyond hospital walls. Population Health programs aim to lower healthcare costs for patients and systems by preventing readmissions and non-emergent ED visits, decreasing patient length of stay, and ensuring continuity of care once patients are discharged from an inpatient stay in our Medical Center or Emergency Department, Ambulatory Clinic, Children’s Hospital, or by direct provider referral.
We provide case management, continuity of care support, home health, cutting-edge technology, clinical support and escalation, primary care bridging, and primary care in the home, mobile care, community health worker support, pharmacy consultation and medication reconciliation, and a behavioral health program for eligible patients.
Our programs improve health outcomes and patient experiences through data-driven, evidence-based workflows and program best practices.
We want every patient to have the best care experience, give value-based care, and deliver quality and safety that create superior outcomes.
