Aspects of Social Determinants of Health: Acting on SDoH
Previous articles in this series introduced the importance of social determinants of health (SDoH) and explained how it can be captured and classified. In this article, I’ll show how many hospitals, payers, and other institutions are acting on that data. Of course, the staff of a clinic or hospital don’t go around looking for apartments the way they actively look for a long-term care facility.

According to Dr. Victor Lee, vice president of cl...

Welcome Back Kotter: New York ’ s next 1115 Waiver
The objectives of DSRIP 1.0 – a laundry list of HEDIS measures – made the program difficult to manage “on the ground” and too tightly tied to medical measures of success.
