The Management of Population Health takes a meta-approach to health issues focusing on strategies to improve health and well-being while controlling costs. Several frameworks will be critiqued and concepts studied will include, but will not be limited to, the correlates of the health of different populations, the stages of the life cycle, the burden of illness for society, contagions and public health, the congruence between evidence and policy, prevention, community action, and the development of students’ critical appraisal skills.
Prerequisite: C650, or registration in Global Health or eHealth, or permission of the instructor.
