Who:

  • Sophia Chang, Director, Better Chronic Disease Care, California HealthCare Foundation

What:

Approximately half of all Americans have a chronic health condition—and that number is predicted to increase in the next 20 years as people live longer. This webinar described the different populations of chronically ill patients, what we know about innovating quality care for them, and new opportunities within the Affordable Care Act to enhance outcomes and slow the growth in costs. Participants discussed strategies for foundation engagement in this issue.
