Through community partnerships and collaboratives, healthcare organizations are launching programs to address social needs and social determinants of health. But is the way we’re spending our resources putting us on a path to achieve long-term goals for population and community health? At the moment, the answer is no. And one reason is this: As we’re busy designing and managing new upstream initiatives, we’re treating them as individual programs, not as investments within a broader portfolio. In this webinar, national experts discussed new ways for institutions, multi-sector collaboratives and entire communities to shape interventions into a cohesive investment strategy that can achieve long-term financial, health, and social impact.
