Member News
Health Leaders: (1/6) - Community-based organizations (CBOs) are often on the front lines of local need, but payers have faced challenges in helping CBOs be part of value-based care models to get paid for the services they provide, whether that is helping with referrals and service delivery or other services. Some states, like Pennsylvania, are requiring Medicaid MCOs to incorporate CBOs into their value-based purchasing arrangements to address social determinants, something health plans like UPMC are working to address. Other plans use platforms, such as with Humana Bold Goal using a Signify Health platform, to help CBOs with communication, tracking, and referrals for MA members.
American Hospital Association: (1/6) - The American Hospital Association posted updated guidance to help hospitals and clinicians use ICD-10 Z codes to capture data on the social needs of patient populations, including non-medical factors that may influence a patient’s health status.
3M: (1/5) - A recent 3M report looking at socioeconomic status and health care delivery system performance applies the lens of the CDC’s Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) to hospital performance across all US counties. While this lens helps provide a view of social factors contributing to health disparities, one key limitation is county level visibility. Such a patient-level lens, using Z codes to capture social factors during a medical office visit, can bring into focus the immediate needs of an individual to then address.
BCBS Progress Health: (12/28) - Dr. Adam Myers, senior vice president and chief clinical transformation officer at the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, joined a discussion with other health leaders to discuss a health system that works for all by looking at the link between health care affordability and health equity, offering insights into what is being done and what more can be done. More from the discussion can be found here.
Essentia Health: (12/22) - The Resourceful program, an effort driven by Essentia Health and other local and statewide organizations, recently reached 1,000 referrals connecting individuals to programs and services to address their social needs. This collaboration leverages the findhelp platform to provide this free online platform to connect individuals to services.
Blue Cross MA Foundation: (12/21) - The Blue Cross MA Foundation, an affiliate of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, published a primer that serves as a foundation resource to broaden the collective understanding of racial and ethnic health inequities and disparities in Massachusetts. The primer is intended to support discussion about how the health care system and other systems that impact health enhance or undermine health, and to facilitate the development of solutions to strengthen those systems in the state.
Social Current: (12/15) - Social Current and the Council on Accreditation announced a collaboration with Unite Us to advance health equity and improve health and social outcomes through innovation and technology. The partnership will enable Social Current and Unite Us to work collaboratively to make positive change in communities across the country.
Change Lab Solutions: (2021) - A report funded by Blue Shield of California, a health plan of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, looked at how community-based organizations (CBOs) filled the gaps for underserved communities in California during the pandemic. The report highlights information gathered from interviews with CBOs that informed recommendations to help identify policies and strategies to better serve BIPOC communities and families with low income in the state, and provides recommendations on advancing an equitable recovery.

HHS: (12/27) - HHS Secretary Becerra announced the release of the annual update to the HHS National Plan to Address Alzheimer’s Disease. The plan includes a new goal focused on work being done to promote healthy aging and reduce the risks that may contribute to onset of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Under this goal, it is noted in the report that it will be critical for research, interventions, and infrastructure to address modifiable risk factors for Alzheimer’s Disease that are culturally responsive and grounded in improving equity by addressing social determinants of health.
HHS: (12/23) - HHS announced the availability of nearly $48 million in American Rescue Plan funding for community-based organizations to expand public health capacity in rural and tribal communities through health care job development, training, and placement.
HHS: (12/22) - The HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR) issued guidance tied to legal standards and best practices for improving access to COVID-19 vaccine programs and ensuring nondiscrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin. The guidance ensures civil rights laws understand their obligations under the Civil Rights Act and Affordable Care Act that require federally assisted health care providers and systems to ensure fair, equitable access to vaccines and boosters.
AHRQ: (12/21) - AHRQ released a blog about the inequities in COVID-19 infection rates and outcomes, finding that from April to September 2020, hospital deaths for any condition increased 15 percent for non-Hispanic White patients, 60 percent for non-Hispanic Black patients, and 135 percent for Hispanic patients compared to earlier years.
Administration for Community Living: (12/20) - The Administration for Community Living (ACL) announced the four Phase 2 winners of the Social Care Referrals Challenge competition.

SDoH & Health Equity in the News
Patient Engagement HIT: (1/6) - The Morehouse School of Medicine has long been focused on health equity work, and recently partnered with CommonSpirit to form the More in Common Alliance. This collaboration will expand medical school rotations and residency slots in traditionally underserved neighborhoods and communities and give medical students in Seattle, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Southern California access to Morehouse’s extensive health equity curriculum.
Emergency Medicine News: (January 2022) - This article calls for the “housing is health care” mantra to be an evidence-based policy, as provision of housing reduces emergency department visits and use of EMS services, resolves many preventable medical problems, and reduces inpatient admissions. The author makes the case for why physicians, in addition to social workers, can play a role in ensuring patients are connected to housing in order to improve their health outcomes and needs.
Patient Engagement HIT: (12/30) - The Jackson County Health Department partnered with Ohio University to address the impact of COVID-19 and health disparities on Ohio residents by training community health workers to be on the frontlines to improve health literacy in the community. The project received a $4.5 million grant to train 13 community health workers across Ohio that will facilitate connections to resources to improve their health outcomes.
Inside Health Policy: (12/27) - The National Academy of State Health Policy (NASHP) is urging Medicaid managed care organizations (MCOs) to tap into COVID funding surpluses to address housing needs as a social determinant of health, particularly as many insurers ended 2020 with surplus profit due to decline in emergency visits and costs of in-person care. NASHP is calling for Medicaid MCOs to introduce routine screening for housing needs, hire housing coordinators to alleviate the burden on other providers, partner with housing providers and finance the efforts creatively using profits from the public health emergency.
Modern Healthcare: (12/27) - In this article, a physician discusses his experience addressing the health and social needs of patients and the barriers that often get in the way. He stresses why patient communication should be a social determinant of health, and how such strategies should be adaptive based on a physician’s understanding of the whole patient.
Patient Engagement HIT: (12/23) - Community Housing of Maine (CHOM) received a $10,000 donation to improve housing security for vulnerable populations in Maine. The organization delivers safe, stable and inclusive housing communities to individuals by developing and purchasing high-quality, affordable housing.
Fierce Healthcare: (12/22) - Fierce Healthcare published its predictions for what is next for health equity in 2022, developed through comments received from health care stakeholders. Highlights included the need for the health care industry to be more data-driven, which involves having a shared baseline understanding of existing health disparities and how to track them.
Fierce Healthcare: (12/22) - In 2022, the CMS Innovation Center is expected to make changes to its existing models to improve health equity, according to the Center’s experts and agency officials. Health equity was a major pillar of CMMI’s new strategic vision, and will be a central focus when thinking about existing models and how they affect equity. Some experts have noted that the push for equity could change how providers are recruited for value-based care programs to reach vulnerable populations.
Patient Engagement HIT: (12/22) - Houston Methodist donated $50 million to Legacy Community Health to expand access to health care services by building community health centers for underserved communities in Houston. This effort aims to close care gaps and deliver critical services to some of the most underserved communities, including comprehensive HIV care, primary care, and support services.
Modern Healthcare: (12/21) - In this op-ed, the author highlights the social determinants of learning (SDOL) framework, which was created to encourage greater diversity at nursing schools and make systemic changes. The SDOL framework fills a void in current research specific to nursing students by identifying social determinants that can create barriers to student success, as well as students’ social-emotional wellbeing which can impact educational outcomes.
Health Affairs: (12/21) - Health Affairs announced the first cohort of its Health Equity Fellowship for Trainees. The 10 early career health policy researchers are all dedicated to the advancement of racial health equity through policies impacting the nation’s health services.
Modern Healthcare: (12/21) - Modern Healthcare held a virtual Social Determinants of Health Symposium in December where speakers concentrated on the solutions to addressing inequity at the national level. This article provides highlights from this discussion, including leveraging community health workers to bridge gaps in care, examining how racism impacts health outcomes, and how health systems can be part of the solution to advance health equity.
Brookings Institution: (12/20) - The National Center for Health Statistics published data in 2021 showing a 1.5-year decline in national life expectancy in 2020, however while life expectancy of white Americans declined 1.2 years, that for Black Americans declined 2.9 years. This racial disparity in life expectancy is a lagging indicator of disparities that existed throughout the pandemic. This article calls for examining the conditions of place and outsized role of social determinants of health to understand the mechanics of racial discrimination that contribute to this outcome.
Health Leaders: (12/20) - Healthfirst, a regional New York health plan, is improving outcomes across conditions and populations through clinical partnership, resource management, and health equity through its ADVANCE health equity model. The model has helped activate public health and equity as a care strategy, and is embedded through the health plan’s operations.
Patient Engagement HIT: (12/17) - CVS Health announced it will invest $11.6 million in affordable housing units in Austin, Texas. CVS will partner with Caritas of Austin, The Vecino Group, and Austin Housing Finance Corporation to build an apartment complex with 171 units of permanent supportive housing in the city.
Crain’s Chicago Business: (12/17) - Chicago has vast disparities in health outcomes based on zip code, with the South Side of Chicago experiencing a 10 times higher risk of infant mortality and four times greater rate of death from diabetes compared to the North Side of the city. Despite this, over 50 percent of South Siders must seek care outside their communities given provider shortages and lack of health care services. This op-ed stresses the importance of health innovation to address such disparities and the need for development in underserved areas where vanguard health care businesses can have the most impact.

Spotlight on Maternal Health
Patient Engagement HIT: (1/5) - New data from Johns Hopkins Medicine found that Black women born in the US have a higher odds of preeclampsia than Black women who immigrated from other countries. Researchers suggested that social determinants of health factors, as well as structural racism and implicit bias, could be partially behind this data. The evidence also indicated that Black immigrants who had lived in the US longer than 10 years showed an increased risk of preeclampsia compared to those who had lived in the US fewer than 10 years.
Maryland Department of Health: (1/5) - The Maryland Department of Health will award over $1.1 million over the next three years from the CDC to support statewide efforts to improve maternal health outcomes. These funds will support in-depth reviews of pregnancy-associated deaths to better understand the causes of maternal mortality and complications that occur during and after pregnancy in Maryland, including associated disparities.
Pew Charitable Trusts: (1/4) - To improve maternal and infant health, organizations and government agencies can design systems that are responsive to client and community needs, using multidisciplinary approaches to better coordinate and integrate service design and delivery while creating structures that engage community voices. Virginia and Washington are examples of two states doing this through the Calling All Sectors Initiative, a collaboration of cross-sector core teams working to address maternal and child health issues by connecting state agencies, community-based organizations, and health providers to the groups they serve.
Urban Institute: (1/3) - The pandemic brought a rapid shift to telehealth use to ensure access to care, however it is not yet clear whether this increase in use has exacerbated or mitigated systemic maternal health inequities. This article discusses how building the evidence base on how telehealth shapes maternal and infant health will be key to achieving the best outcomes and ensuring racial disparities don't widen, and how patient voices are important in this work.
Health Affairs: (January 2022) - This study looked at continuity of coverage during one year postpartum among people eligible for low-income adult Medicaid versus those ineligible for Medicaid by any pathway in Colorado. The study found that retention of Medicaid coverage as a low-income adult was associated with 1.5 additional months of postpartum insurance enrollment and a 12-percentage point increase in the probability of continuous coverage during the first year after birth.
Patient Engagement HIT: (12/21) - A study by UT Southwestern Medical Center found that disparities in pregnancy outcomes persisted even when pregnant people had access to prenatal care, and that individuals in neighborhoods with worse health disparities were found to be at greater risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Researchers found that although 97 percent of pregnant individuals studied were able to access prenatal care, those with more significant social needs saw more adverse outcomes during pregnancy and postpartum, even after adjusting for race, age, and body mass index.

New Research and Reports
Healthcare Innovation: (1/4) - A recent report by Health Management Associates looked at 10 recent state requests for proposals, showing various state-level approaches to address social determinants and health equity through contracts with Medicaid managed care organizations (MCOs). Examples include how some states are requiring MCOs or provider networks to screen enrollees for SDOH needs, while others are including requirements for MCOs to incorporate SDOH into quality assessment and performance improvement programs.
Patient Engagement HIT: (1/4) - A study published by University of California San Diego researchers found that experiencing housing insecurity during a heatwave increases the odds a patient will visit the emergency department by a factor of 1.29. The study also found that younger age and housing insecurity were associated with emergency department visits.
Managed Healthcare Executive: (12/23) - A paper published in JAMA Health Forum found that a lack of payment reform has stymied efforts by clinicians and health care systems to address social barriers to care and social determinants of health. The authors concluded that “payment reform that enables clinicians and organizations to address social barriers to health offers an opportunity to address inequitable health outcomes,” and that efforts such as supporting social workers and nurses to address social needs can help prevent high-cost, downstream health care and inequitable outcomes.
Center for American Progress: (12/21) - Disability and food insecurity have a close and well-documented relationship. This issue brief provides background on long-standing barriers to food security and access for disabled people in the United States, discusses the pandemic’s impact and highlights solutions by disability and community organizations to these issues, and provides recommendations for the federal government to alleviate food insecurity in the disability community.
Governor Laura Kelly: (12/21) - Kansas Governor Laura Kelly announced that her Commission on Racial Equity and Justice released its final report, which includes recommendations to various levels of government on ways to improve racial equity in economic systems, education and health care. Among topics covered in the final report include implementing universal equity policies and addressing housing and homelessness, among others.
NASHP: (12/20) - The fragmentation of the health and housing sectors is a significant factor that limits coordination in addressing housing instability and homelessness. Models of successful cross-agency partnerships exist, however more learning and collaboration is needed to achieve the joint goals of the housing and health sectors of healthy, equitable and thriving communities. This paper aims to provide a background on the health and housing sector, including common language and core programs, as well as current opportunities for cross-sector collaboration for state leaders.
Kaiser Family Foundation: (12/17) - The pandemic has exacerbated pre-existing health disparities for justice-involved populations, who tend to be disproportionately low-income and have complex chronic conditions. States may take steps to leverage Medicaid to improve continuity of care for this population. This brief answers key questions about state efforts to connect individuals to care before, upon, and following release from incarceration.
Center for Health Care Strategies: (December 2021) - The overlap between eligibility for Medicaid and other food support programs (like SNAP) provides an opportunity for states to coordinate their policies and processes to improve access to affordable, nutritious food. This report offers four recommendations for policymakers to integrate individuals with lived experience as partners in program and policy design, implementation and evaluation to more effectively address food insecurity.
Grantmakers in Health: (December 2021) - Grantmakers in Health, in collaboration with the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), interviewed stakeholders across the country to identify barriers and opportunities in improving data on race and ethnicity to advance health equity. This resulted in publishing a second report that provides details about race and ethnicity data collection in federally administered health programs and an expanded list of recommendations for improving the data.

Data and Innovation
Modern Healthcare: (1/3) - As health systems roll out more tools to analyze data to improve patient care, considerations around integrating race and ethnicity data must be considered. If health systems and software developers do not consider ways to ensure multiracial patients are accounted for when using algorithms or protocols that rely on race, those models may not be reliable for that patient population and can exacerbate existing inequities and erode patient trust. This article further explores the topics of predicting risk, next generation medicine, and getting the right data to ensure AI tools do not overlook multiracial patients.
Modern Healthcare: (12/30) - Health care professionals are looking to address and overcome the disparities exacerbated by the pandemic and provide equal access to testing, vaccines and treatment, turning to strategies that help meet patients of vulnerable and underserved communities where they are in order to do so. Many providers are starting to partner with scientists, information technology and quality experts, and policymakers to better serve such populations, as well as collecting more data about inequities, to better address health and social needs.
Modern Healthcare: (12/29) - Changes to how race has been categorized, documented and collected over time, among other key factors, can make it challenging to accurately capture patient race data and inform care. How people think about and categorize race has evolved over time, and a patient’s self-reported race could change or be reported differently at different sites of care. Health care organizations also vary in how they collect race and ethnicity data and how consistently that information is captured. This article explores these complexities in more detail.
Healthcare Innovation: (12/23) - The National Quality Forum’s (NQF) Leadership Consortium identified its top priorities for 2022. Among priorities include focusing on social determinants of health data collection, including by having NQF convene multi-stakeholder experts in a learning collaborative or action team to advance the collection and use of SDOH data through the dissemination of emergency and best practices.
EHR Intelligence: (12/22) - Dell Medical School at the University of Texas is piloting an ONC-funded health IT implementation that aims to enhance social services referral interoperability between clinics and service providers. This effort seeks to help providers make social services referrals within their EHR workflow, and notify providers when a patient has been connected to and is receiving services.
