Thank you MedCity News for the mention — “Patient engagement is essential for achieving the goals of value-based care (VBC). Success requires both novel VBC models as well as moving care beyond the clinic walls to meet patients where they are.” We couldn’t agree more. - - - “Here we name just a few among a growing number of companies that are delivering care in the home or outside the typical provider setting: Ounce of Care is a private-sector solution that, similar to New York’s MRT program, also provides coordinated care within affordable housing properties and includes services such as referrals to primary care, support in enrolling in Medicaid and food and utility assistance programs, and on-site community health events.” #medicaid #affordablehousing #sdoh #managedcare #residentservices #healthequity https://lnkd.in/gE_CWbJN
