The increasing demand for healthcare - driven by an ageing population, increasing numbers of patients with chronic, long term conditions, technological advances and lifestyle pressures means that the NHS faces a real challenge in ensuring the delivery of improved outcomes for local populations within constrained financial allocations.
UnitedHealth UK has proactive and innovative solutions to support the NHS in addressing some of the major drivers of healthcare spending whilst improving health care outcomes.
Our approach to population health management through our Staying Healthy, Managing your Health and Living with a Condition can help transform local health communities into a system that is highly personalised, clinically effective, driven by data. We work with GPs and Practice teams in referral management, facilitation services, care planning, case and condition management and in reducing unwarranted variation and costs. We also support hospitals with utilisation management, discharge planning and our pioneering readmission avoidance programme.
