Message From David Posch: Great Strides in 2021

As we wind down 2021, the Office of Population Health has many achievements to celebrate. The VHAN teams made great strides on 11 key aims, as you can read in the Impact Report below. The Episodes of Care, Employer Solutions and Business Engagement Strategies teams have been working hard on the launch of three new MyHealth Bundles on January 1, 2022. Several new employers have taken notice of Vanderbilt’s bundles program, choosing to offer this extraordinary benefit to their employees in the new year. The Corporate Health and Wellness team has held multiple mass vaccination events for local and regional employers, adding thousands to the list of the vaccinated, and the Care Management team has helped a host of patients reach their health goals and navigate the complexities of the health care system.

No matter your team, we are immensely grateful for your hard work and dedication this year. Despite unpredictable and exhausting challenges, your efforts have improved our community’s health and elevated our institution. We’re here to support you, so please reach out if I or anyone on the executive team can help you solve problems and continue to create excellence.

I also wanted to acknowledge that some members of our Vanderbilt team have experienced extraordinary hardships this year. If you have the means, consider making a contribution to the Vanderbilt Employee Hardship Fund or other worthy cause in your community.
