Estimated Costs of Intervening in Health-Related Social Needs Detected in Primary Care
- Sanjay Basu, MD, PhD
Submitted on: May, 2023
Health-related social needs are increasingly being screened for in primary care practices, but it remains unclear how much additional financing is required to address those needs to improve health outcomes. The findings of this study suggest that substantial resources would be needed to implement a comprehensive approach to addressing social needs that falls largely outside of existing federal financing mechanisms.
Interoperability among hospitals treating populations that have been marginalized
- Jordan Everson PhD, MPP
Submitted on: May, 2023
Interoperable exchange—the sharing and integration of health information between organizations—provides important benefits to patients. While hospital engagement in interoperable exchange and participation in national networks has steadily increased over time, systematic differences in hospital engagement in interoperability exist. Hospital engagement in interoperability and other advanced usages of electronic health records (EHR) have been found to be lower among smaller, rural, and independent hospitals compared to large, urban, health system-based hospitals.
