Integrative Informatics and Predictive Modeling Support for Population Health

This project targets development of proactive population health informatics methods in a geographically distributed medically and culturally heterogeneous population of app. 450,000 lives (Medicaid and Uninsured) served by 3000+ providers. The informatics infrastructure will be generally applicable to population health clinical informatics efforts.
