On October 13, 2020, RWJBarnabas Health (RWJBH) launched Health Beyond the Hospital (HBH), a systemwide universal initiative to provide all RWJBH consumers with culturally tailored and fully integrated annual assessment of their need for non-medical social determinants of health (SDOH). The HBH assessment will ask about the consumer’s food security, housing stability, needs for educational opportunities, smoking and substance use patterns (to determine if referrals to cessation or addiction treatment are needed), ability to access transportation, and other social and environmental factors that contribute to chronic disease. Through HBH, every RWJBH consumer will be screened for SDOH conditions . . .
