cigna and allegheny health network: Workplace Health Promotion Programs Carl I. Fertman, 2015-10-05 Shine a spotlight on the benefits of promoting health in the workplace Workplace Health Promotion Programs focuses on the incredible value that employee health programs can offer by exploring six key topics: behavioral health, physical health, healthy environments, health education, nutritional health, and physical activity. This in-depth resource explicitly establishes what successful workplace health promotion programs, services, and collaborations are, and then builds upon this foundational understanding by introducing methods and tools for promoting employee health and safety, while emphasizing the skills students need to do so. Through this resource, students will come to understand how to recognize employee health and safety opportunities, and how to think on a larger scale when it comes to workplace health initiatives in small, midsized, and larger employers that are comprehensive and fiscally sound. Workplace health promotion programs have the potential to both improve the health of the population as a whole and control healthcare spending in the process. Health problems are estimated to cost employers in the United States over $200 billion per year through medical costs, absenteeism, disability, and overall reduced productivity. Improving well-being through effective workplace health promotion programs can reduce this cost—and create healthier, happier workforces. Discover the design, implementation, and evaluation of workplace health promotion programs that address the range of employee health needs and concerns Understand how evidence-based programs can positively impact business and reduce health care cost Explore the larger scale implications of successful workplace health programs, including health policies, health insurance design, worker safety, employee behavior, etc. Learn how together employers and employees work to create a culture of health and well-being to support and promote employee health and safety Review the ways in which successful workplace health promotion programs can prove financially beneficial Workplace Health Promotion Programs is a resource that guides students and professionals alike in the discovery, development, and execution of successful employee health initiatives. |

cigna and allegheny health network: Strategic Healthcare Management: Planning and Execution, Second Edition Stephen Walston, 2018-01-15 Instructor Resources: Test bank, PowerPoint slides for each chapter, answers to the chapter questions, and suggestions for presenting and discussing the cases. A healthcare organization's mission should direct its strategies. Successful leaders make good decisions that advance their organization's ability to achieve its mission—and thereby gain a strategic mission advantage—even in the face of uncertainty. This book explores in depth the development and implementation of strategy to achieve mission advantage. It provides both the theoretical concepts and the practical tools leaders need to make better strategic decisions. Its cases and examples show how strategic principles can be applied to the intricacies of the contemporary healthcare system, always tying back to the key stakeholders, values, mission, and vision that underpin healthcare organizations and their purpose. A notable feature of this edition is its emphasis on learning through topical and timely case studies that depict strategic challenges healthcare leaders commonly face. These challenges range from issues of capitation, the formation of accountable care relationships, and competitive positioning to the dissolution of alliances and vertical integration, among others. Along with the necessary concepts and practical means for understanding, implementing, and monitoring strategies, this book also provides financial tools for directing strategic decisions and methods for analyzing healthcare markets. Noteworthy topics include the following and more: The shift to value-based care and reimbursement modelsThe continued evolution of healthcare reform and its effect on healthcare market structure Hospital and healthcare business models and how they are changingDisruptive innovation in healthcareThe impact of increasing consolidation of the insurance and provider sectorsThe advantages and challenges of alliances and partnerships, both domestic and internationalHealthcare stakeholders and their engagementAccountability in healthcare strategic plan executionGiven the rapid and seemingly constant change in healthcare, skillful strategic planning and its implementation are more essential than ever to achieving organizational success.

cigna and allegheny health network: Big Med David Dranove, Lawton Robert Burns, 2022-11-18 When it comes to healthcare, bigger isn't always better. The early-1990s rise of megaproviders--large, hospital-based healthcare systems that have become the norm in American medicine--brought promises of accessibility, cost savings, and excellence to the American healthcare experience. Today's megaproviders, following three decades of growth and consolidation, receive as much as two-thirds of healthcare spending in the United States. Big Med examines the rise of these megaproviders and their formative role in reducing American healthcare to its current shambles. As healthcare organizations have consolidated, they've increased their market power, and in doing so created a system in which the network sets the prices, insurance and pharmaceutical companies take the blame, and Americans suffer the costs. Drawing on seven decades of combined research in economics and sociology, Dranove and Burns consider the effects of this noncompetitive system on patients, doctors, and society more broadly. Physicians are forced to provide less attentive care to a larger number of patients; patients in turn pay more for lesser care. This leaves both parties alienated and disenchanted, and any motivations to improve the flawed system are stalled. Amid screeching public debate around the prospects and perils of Medicare-for-all, Big Med is a provocative, narrative-shifting account of who's really calling the shots--and causing harm--in American healthcare today-- |
