Online Courses on Episodes of Care

Navigating health care analytics and all the facets of payment reform can be an overwhelming journey. However, understanding these concepts, at even a basic level, can empower you and your organization to implement programs that can benefit everyone: patients, providers and payers.

We have constructed various online courses specific to the PROMETHEUS Analytics and some of its uses, in particular bundled payment programs. The courses range from basic overviews to advanced and/or technical levels.
