Population health extends the focus of the health care system beyond individual patients to the health of communities and groups of people, especially vulnerable or at-risk populations.
Mathematica has a long history of studying and supporting preventive and population health initiatives, bringing together experts in health and social services to address the myriad factors that influence individual and community well-being. These factors range from clinical symptoms and diseases to broader social determinants of health, such as housing, nutrition, and access to transportation. Our staff have identified, implemented, and evaluated programs designed to slow the spread of the childhood obesity epidemic, improve mental health, and reduce risky behaviors such as smoking and substance abuse. Our work has produced valuable information to inform public health, policy, and health care efforts. Our multidisciplinary teams bring together insights and experience from multiple sectors, breaking down barriers to tackle society’s toughest challenges.
