How do Medicare Advantage providers create health plans tailored to a particular population?

As the healthcare industry strives to be more equitable, stakeholders should prioritize population health management. Population health initiatives focus on improving the health status and outcomes within a group rather than considering one person at a time.

While providers can advance population health through direct care initiatives and care coordination, health insurance companies can also play a crucial role by establishing population-specific health plans. Private payers often take this route for their Medicare Advantage plan offerings.
