Office of Population Health

Our Programs

Value-Based Care Delivery ensures that we will work to provide excellent and equitable care for all patients in our primary service area and to do so in the most cost-effective ways.

Our primary care strategy is to ensure all children will have access to excellent care close to home with the appropriate level of care when they need it.

The Population Health School Program is responsible for the development, implementation, and expansion of clinical school partnerships for Cincinnati Children’s as well as coordination and alignment of existing and newly developed partnerships across our four missions: clinical care, education, advocacy, and research.

The school program proactively identifies community needs, while ensuring adequate resources are deployed to aid in promoting wellness, preventing chronic illness burden, and removing access barriers.

The Population Health Research and Innovation program, launched in 2022, is a program supported by several members in the office that are working to improve health equity for the youth in our region. The program works to partner on innovative telehealth solutions, advances our learning networks, and supports a number of ongoing research initiatives.

Integration of behavioral health into whole-child healthcare is foundational to the population behavioral health program. Through data-driven program development and spread, as well as regional and national dissemination and advocacy, we aim to spread population-level interventions across the continuum of care from prevention and early intervention to high-acuity behavioral health concerns, ultimately improving the lives of all youth in our region.
