This video series is designed to provide trustees with an overview of population health strategies and foundational capabilities that health care leaders are using to redesign care.

The AHA conducted a national survey of hospitals and health systems to assess the state of population health efforts in 2018. The survey, with responses from more than 1,000 hospitals and health systems, shows that while U.S. hospitals and health systems have embarked on their journeys to advance population health, there are opportunities to do more.
