WPHIMA | Social Determinants of Health

Overview:

This session will be a one hour webinar on Social Determinants of Health in Value Based Care.

At the same time as the growing recognition of social risk factors, health care systems are increasingly moving towards higher levels of provider accountability for the quality, outcomes and cost of care. Value-based payment models tie payment to the quality and efficiency of health care delivered. These two concepts are not independent of each other. In fact, these two issues are intersecting! Beneficiaries with social risk factors with poor health outcomes could see benefits from Value-based purchasing programs since improved care coordination and provider cooperation will be the highest utility to the most complex beneficiaries with the most care needs.
