Framework Proposed To Align Health System SDOH Initiatives With EHR & Value-Based Models

Researchers have proposed a framework and a roadmap for learning health systems (LHS) to advance equity in digital health care delivery by integrating data for social determinants of health (SDOH) into electronic health records (EHRs) and value-based models. The framework calls for enabling services, community partnerships, policy advocacy, and direct investments in social infrastructure while aligning health care providers, policymakers, researchers, and technology developers. LHS were defined as engaged in continuous improvement using data and evidence to drive care delivery changes. The framework addresses the individual level, the organizational level, and policy and system levels.
