Congratulations to Moriam Yarrow, who led what we're told was the most interactive session at the Healthcare Advocate Summit! Her presentation with Chinonso Ahanonu highlighted critical gaps in existing clinical decision support tools and the ways in which bias & inequities shape the tools and systems that help providers treat patients. Amazing work! Among Moriam's top takeaways from the conference: - Be curious, not corrective. - Give patients the space to be honest. - Health-related social needs are "the thing behind the thing." #healthcare #healthaccess #healthequity #healthtech #ptexp

In communities like rural El Paso, Texas, community health workers are vital to ensuring thousands of underserved individuals obtain the food, housing and medical services they need to survive. But across the nation, these workers are among the most underutilized and underfunded professionals in healthcare. In this op-ed for Fierce Healthcare, Marisela Zuniga Campos, a community health worker at MHP Salud, and Jonathan Jackson, co-founder and CEO at Dimagi, share why you can't have value-based care without community health workers on the front line. #healthcare #value #valuebasedcare #SDOH #healthequity #healthtech

There's something that can get lost in all the fanfare around GLP-1s: Medication alone is not the answer, says Tim Church, MD, MPH, PhD, Chief Medical Officer, Wondr Health. "Lifestyle is equally important for long-term success," Dr. Church writes in this article for MedCity News. "A good behavior change program can benefit many people with chronic conditions – whether by impacting clinical outcomes, improving quality of life, or helping to lower long-term health-care costs." Find out more, including five areas where GLP-1s are making a difference, in this article. https://lnkd.in/gq3Dmp3a #healthcare #chronicdisease #GLP1s #weightloss #primarycare #healthtech

I had the best time with Kat and Lisa on the Health Tech Talk Show. Kat said it best when she said "I think about this a lot. Things that everybody goes through, but no one's prepared for." If grief and loss is universal experience that we all go through, why is the support so inconsistent depending on the health system? 🤨

“People come in with rough exteriors, not willing to accept help. They've lost trust in healthcare. They've lost trust in homeless services, but here they have their own room and a TV. And they get to choose when they eat, and they have a dresser, and I think it just helps people change and think, ‘Maybe there’s something different for me. Maybe I don't need to just stay in the cycle of homelessness and, you know, in and out of the shelter.’” Powerful profile of The INN Between, a not-for-profit organization that offers a wide range of services for homeless patients and those in unsafe living conditions, in HealthLeaders.
