Listen in as Dr. David Nace and Dr. Douglas Slakey discuss the outsized role of social determinants of health (SDoH) in influencing patient behavior, care, outcomes, and costs in healthcare. They also discuss why health systems need to share data across disciplines and care settings; and how providers can use analytics to go beyond standards—not giving up on them, but enhancing them with a broader approach—to understand and act on patient needs and resources to optimize outcomes.
Dr. Slakey has devoted his career to improving healthcare for populations. As a master of public health, he has worked in emerging markets, focusing on improving care with education, simulation training, and complex system management techniques.
