Social Determinants of Health 101: Improving Patient Outcomes Webinar

 

Recorded Webinar: Social Determinants of Health 101 - Improving Patient Outcomes

The CE Contact Hour is no longer available for this webinar.

Despite our significant spend, U.S. healthcare outcomes are among the lowest for developed countries. By addressing “social determinants” – health-related behaviors, socioeconomic factors, and environmental factors – we aim to improve health outcomes, reduce inequities, and lower costs.

Learning Objectives:

  • What are social determinants of health and why are they important?
  • What is population health and risk stratification and why are these important?
  • Why is it important for clinicians and community based organizations to partner with each other?
  • What is self-management and what are some evidence-based practices that include self-management skills?
