Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) Support

Empowering healthcare organizations with integrated virtual care solutions that improve care coordination, reduce total cost of care, and drive success in value-based care.

Addressing Barriers to Health
and Equity

Social determinants—such as access to food, housing, transportation and social support—have a profound impact on health outcomes. CMS is implementing a Health‑Related Social Needs (HRSN) screening tool to identify beneficiaries’ needs and reimburse providers for these assessments. Care management programs like CCM, BHI and TCM are well positioned to engage patients, screen for SDOH and coordinate.
