The Office of Population Health and Accountable Care (OPHAC) is focused on leading and facilitating the framework to improve population health outcomes across UCLA Health’s Alternative Payment Model (APM) populations across the care continuum. As APMs evaluate outcomes regardless of where the care was rendered, OPHAC initiatives are targeted at improving population-based outcomes for care at UCLA Health and outside of UCLA Health (e.g. post-acute care settings, pharmacies). Successful participation in APMs is essential to respond to the evolving healthcare industry, as health systems are experiencing increased pressures to take on more financial risk and be held accountable for value-based outcomes.

Under the direction of the Assistant Director of the Office of Population Health and Accountable Care, the Program Manager is responsible in executing quality and utilization improvement goals, as defined by UCLA Health leadership. The program management team will be supported by all available analytic tools throughout UCLA Health. The Program Manager will coordinate with the Assistant Director to ensure that analytics and reporting requests driven from the departments are completed within the agreed upon timeline. The program management team is charged with driving UCLA Health towards care transformation directly with clinicians and staff delivering care. The program manager's primary responsibilities will be to ensure that population health strategic goals are operationalized and sustained at the department level for its population health risk adjustment portfolio.
