The SDC assists with education\, outreach\, and promotion related to each decennial (10-year) census\, to ensure the fullest and most accurate count of Minnesota’s population for the purposes of congressional representation and redistricting.\nExcept for the years when decennial censuses are conducted\, the SDC creates independent estimates of population and households for most communities\, counties\, and the state as a whole. The SDC adopts the estimates produced by the Metropolitan Council for the seven-county Twin Cities metropolitan region. \nThe SDC independently produces a variety of projections\, including long-term projections for Minnesota by age\, gender\, race and ethnicity; total population projections for counties and economic development regions; as well as labor force projections for the state as a whole.\nFurthermore\, the SDC analyzes and distributes data from the federal and state government and other sources to monitor key trends\, especially in the areas of economics\, education\, fertility\, workforce\, health\, immigration\, income and poverty. \nThe SDC is often called upon to inform policy-making and planning efforts at the State Capitol\, state agencies and beyond. The State Demographer and other staff members of the SDC regularly provide insight to media contacts writing about demographics trends and present to audiences around Minnesota\, reaching more than 4\,000 listeners each year. \nThe State Demographic Center assists policymakers\, state and local governments\, businesses\, nonprofits\, the media\, and all Minnesotans locate and understand the demographic data they need to make smart decisions. \n  \nAbout Susan Brower\, Minnesota State Demographer\nSusan Brower is the Minnesota State Demographer and directs the MN State Demographic Center.

SUMMARY:Healthcare: Accountable Care Organizations' Trajectory & Rethinking Value in Health Care
DESCRIPTION:  \nDate: Thursday\, October 27\, 2022 \nTime: 5:30 PM – 7:00 PM \nLocation: Zoom \nFor more than 15 years\, many in the health care policy arena have focused on initiatives\, such as Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs)\, that aim to promote greater value in health care. While oversimplified\, value for these purposes is generally regarded as a balance of the quality and costs of care. Recently\, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) began soliciting participants for a new ACO model: the Accountable Care Organization Realizing Equity\, Access\, and Community Health (ACO REACH). This discussion will explore the ACO REACH model\, examine the outcomes from value-driven policy\, and encourage health care leaders to rethink our concepts of value in health care. \n  \n\n \n\nMatthew Anderson is a senior lecturer in the Health Policy and Management Division of the University of Minnesota’s School of Public Health and the founder of Atrede Consulting\, which provides policy\, governance\, and strategy services to nonprofit and public organizations. He served as Assistant Commissioner for Health Care and State Medicaid Director for the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS)\, where he led an administration overseeing the state’s Medicaid and Minnesota Care programs that provide health coverage for more than 1.3 million low-income and vulnerable Minnesotans. Prior to joining DHS\, he held executive leadership roles in the Minnesota Hospital Association and as the Intellectual Capital Leader and Principal for Mercer’s Government Human Services Sector. Before transitioning his career to health care\, Anderson served as an attorney for the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office\, Hennepin County Attorney’s Office\, and Minnesota State Colleges and Universities. He graduated from St. John’s University and received his law degree from the University of Minnesota. \n  \n**This event is opened to everyone! \nIf you’re not a member of the TRUST\, please create a free guest account. \n\nThank you to our TRUST 2022 Corporate Sponsors: UnitedHealth Group | UnitedHealthcare | Optum\,  \nBlue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota  \nHealthPartners Park Nicollet
