Episode S06E06: Using a data-driven approach to human-centered SDOH work

Note: we're taking a quick break next week (10/28) but will be back 11/4 with more conversations.

A good population health strategy requires a breadth of health data to make it work. Across social determinants of health data, patient data and data from non-traditional sources, healthcare organizations and professionals can design interventions tailored to better support chronic disease management and, ideally, prevention.

But how can healthcare providers and their insurer counterparts make effective use of that data to promote better outcomes? And at what point do patient engagement and an empathic human touch need to balance out SDOH data?

Featuring: Roy Beveridge, MD, senior strategic advisory at Avalere Health, and Sarah Ahmad, CEO of CAQH

In today's episode, we'll cover…

• The need for tailored healthcare approaches
• The role of health data analytics tools
• The marriage of information and human touch in a digitized population health space

And more!
