  "Conventional wisdom has held that the same 5 percent of the population that generated the most utilization and cost one year would be the same 5 percent that would do so the following year. Our analysis reveals that, of that 5 percent, just 1 percent of those patients over the following year are most responsible for driving utilization and costs. The other 4 percent comes from portions of the population that today have been identified only as low- or moderate-risk, and have yet to transition to the high-risk cohort."

Excerpted from: Population Health News, Volume 11 Number 4, April 2019, "The Power of Prediction: What You Don’t Know About Your Patients Can Drive You to Bankruptcy," by Dan Hoemke.
