Extending Return on Investment: A Multi-Sector Approach to Whole-Person Health Symposium
 
 

Extending Return on Investment: A Multi-Sector Approach to Whole-Person Health

Please join us as we advance the discussion of a new paradigm for economic evaluation, the Collective Return on Investment (ROI). Traditional ROI approaches often fall short in evaluating interventions, programs, or policies in terms of their impact on patient-clinician encounters, community programming, and whole person health (WPH) over a lifespan. Our goal is to develop recommendations for a model for shared impact and a collective return on investment for WPH/prevention research across the urban-rural continuum.

The symposium will focus on:

  1. Whole Person Health
  2. Developing a model for collective return on investment
  3. Social and structural determinants of health across the urban-rural continuum

Outputs and Actionable Ideas: We will develop a symposium report and action plan, including recommendations, a protocol document for publication, action templates, training manuals, and a logic model. 

Details: We invite you to join us at the Cleone Peterson Eccles Alumni House at the University of Utah on May 22, 2025. More event details to come!
