Learning From Network Analysis: Care Transitions, Market Competition, & Community Interventions, Glen P. Mays

Health Management and Policy Presentations

The increasingly connected world of health care delivery relies on an expanding frontier of multi-stakeholder structures and processes, from interdisciplinary patient-centered care teams, to virtual accountable care organizations (ACOs), to complex community-level interventions. This methods workshop highlights recent advances in applying social network analysis (SNA) methods to study the implementation and impact of these types of innovations. This session will examine the benefits and limits of novel SNA applications based on the expanding availability of large, linkable electronic clinical and administrative data sources with dependent data structures.
