#Primarycare practices are trying to improve patients’ #SDOH. But what is the role of #physicians in delivering #socialcare? NEW study in @LiebertPub provides answers. ✒️ @frazetk @UCSFFamilyMed @lauragotmd @siren @LBBeidler @DartmouthInst #publichealth bit.ly/3CbSJ7V
Excited to see our paper in @AnnFamMed! We interviewed health care orgs to explore their use of case management to improve patients’ social needs. Some key findings… (1/6) @LBBeidler @CarolineFichte1 @SIREN_UCSF @UCSF_IHPS
Healthcare orgs interviewed in new pub by @frazetk, et al describe four main challenges to address patient social needs:

➡️ Incorporating patient perspectives
➡️ Program sustainability

Who is in the driver’s seat?
By not using patients as experts, health care organizations may miss out on useful and impactful knowledge that could make efforts more effective. (5/6)
Excited to see our latest paper out in JGIM on how ACOs implement care plans for patients with complex health needs. Care plans are an evidence-based tool that can improve outcomes while engaging patients. Main findings... @LBBeidler @ADMBriggs @CHColla (1/5)
ACO use of care plans for patients with complex health needs does not align with prescribed best practices: ACOs adapt use of care plans to better fit the needs of patients and providers. @frazetk link.springer.com/article/10…
Care plans: A tool for who...? Some ACOs used care plans as a collaborative tool to help patients take ownership of their health goals. Others used care plans to organize information about the patient for providers, which may fail to prioritize goals important to patients. (4/5)

New research shows incentives in today’s value-based payment models do not appear sufficient to encourage primary care practices to initiate screening for health-related social needs buff.ly/2T7P5Xb CC @CPR4healthcare @HealthPolicyHub @frazetk @lauragotmd @valeriealewis
ICYMI, wanted to share this deep dive editorial by @MonicaOReillyJ1. She raises a thoughtful and important question. It's one we've explored in depth.

Debate aside, the evidence is clear: nurse practitioners are playing a key role in caring for Medicare beneficiaries with complex clinical needs.
Thanks, @ermeara for the great summary. See the full results @MedicalCareLWW, tinyurl.com/y5j27gl2
Visit patterns were similar whether a beneficiary was cared for by an NP who was in a primary care or a specialty practice (6 visits vs. 6.5 visits).
