Why Rising Risk?» Complex care to date has largely focused on supporting individuals who already have intensive medical and social needs and high costs

» Stabilizing individuals who are on the trajectory to becoming complex‐ but aren’t there yet‐ holds promise for improved quality of life, care and savings 

Key Questions:»How do you identify an impactable Rising Risk population?» What are the key characteristics of a Rising Risk population?» What are the key modifiable forces driving their risk?» What interventions are  best suited for this population?

Rising Risk Overview

Page 6: Rising Risk: Early Insights Into Preventing Complexity · Rising Risk: Early Insights Into Preventing Complexity ... Inputs include medical claims, pharmacy claims, utilization data,

Would you consider this individual to be Rising Risk?» Why or why not?» Is there additional information you would want to have in order to make this determination?

If yes, what are the major forces contributing to rising risk for him or her?»Which of these would you prioritize focusing on and why?

What interventions would you link this person to?» How are these different from interventions designed for individuals who are already medically and socially complex, and how are these the same?
