IPS07: Industry Partner Session (Meditech) - Health Equity - Strategies, Considerations & Barriers to Collecting and Addressing SDOH
CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) defines health equity as the attainment of the highest level of health for all people, where everyone has a fair and just opportunity to attain their optimal health regardless of race, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socioeconomic status, geography, preferred language, or other factors that affect access to to care and health outcomes. These factors or SDOH (Social Determinants of Health) are widely recognized as important predictors in clinical care, and patients with social risk factors have worse outcomes and increased costs. During this session, we will explore the benefits, barriers, considerations, and strategies to developing programs that screen for, collect and intervene on SDOH factors in your community, while leveraging data analytics and the EHR. We will explore how the EHR can be leveraged to collect, analyze, and act on this new kind of data, and what should organizations be doing now to build a strong health IT foundation for a successful approach.
