Population health
Dr. Rhonda Medows
CEO, Ayin Health Solutions
Medows leads efforts to address not just population health broadly, but the impact of social determinants on care. Her team has instituted innovations that have reduced avoidable emergency department visits, especially for the Medicaid population. They’ve also reduced length of stay and directed patients to lower-cost care sites. Along with driving an ambitious population health strategy at Providence St. Joseph, Medows leads Ayin Health Solutions, a subsidiary that works with payers, providers, employers and government to reduce costs.
