Summary
University of Michigan Health Management Research Center
Sound Bites
1. The “Do Nothing” strategy is unsustainable.
2. Refocus the definition of health from “Absence of Disease to
High Level Vitality.”
3. “Total Population Management” is the effective healthcare
strategy and to capture the “Total Value of Health”
4. The business case for Health Management indicates that the
critical strategy is to “Keep the Healthy People Healthy”
(“keep the low-risk people low-risk”).
5. The first step is, “Don’t Get Worse” and then “Let’s Create
Winners, One Step at a Time.”
