Sharing SDOH Data
A new AHIMA study conducted by NORC at the University of Chicago found that nearly eight in 10 healthcare organizations currently collect SDOH data, yet challenges remain related to the collection, integration, and use of this clinically relevant data to improve healthcare and health outcomes. The survey of 41,000 health information professionals identifies key barriers to collecting and using SDOH data: lack of data standardization, insufficient training and education, and limited data sharing between the healthcare and social services sectors.
Join AHIMA thought leaders for a virtual coffee break on March 3 at 12:00 p.m. CT to learn more about the results of the SDOH Data Use and Collection Survey. During this one-hour event, you will hear from speakers Lauren Riplinger, JD, chief public policy and impact officer at AHIMA, and Priya Bathija, JD, MHSA, health equity expert, about the results that summarize experiences from health information professionals related to data collection, data use and integration, and data governance and recommendations. During this hour, you will also network with other health information professionals, share your experiences with SDOH data, and learn how other organizations are collecting, using, and sharing SDOH data.
The more a health system understands how to infuse data into an SDOH initiative, the better the outcomes realized by the organization. That’s exactly what this white paper is for.
A recording of the webinar recording will be available on-demand after the live event takes place.
