Michael, it's great to be speaking with you today about the topic of social determinants of health, such a critical topic given 40% of health outcomes are determined by social determinants.
Would love to start with just understanding from you, how did you find yourself leading a children's hospital?
What were some of the pivotal moments growing up that shaped who you are as a healthcare leader today?
Picking up on your third reason around social determinants, I think it is probably an understatement to say that Cincinnati Children's Hospital has really been a leader in this space and with this topic.
There's been considerable research demonstrating that social and environmental experiences in childhood can really affect outcomes later in life.
Would love to understand from you either a little bit more about your experience out in the community with those new moms, or more broadly, how you see social factors affecting
whether it be education, housing, violence or other trauma, food insecurity, really playing a role in children's health.
I'm curious how addressing social determinants may be different for a pediatric population compared to an adult population.
As an industry leader, I'm curious what you think the role of health systems is in addressing these types of drivers of health.
When you think about your ability to really treat the whole person in a risk-based model, and how you view the financing angle of this?
I'd love to pick up on something that you mentioned, the fact that you'd view partnerships as being essential.
I think one challenge that often stakeholders find when trying to address social determinants is the fact that no single stakeholder can do it alone.
And often, not only is the healthcare industry fragmented, but the social sector industry is also quite fragmented, and it can be challenging to actually work across that many partners.
With some of the success that you have had, I would love to know if you have any
advice or lessons learned on how you've incentivized such different partners to come to the table with you, whether it be public schools or employers or others.
Are you actually collecting social determinant data in electronic medical records?
Great.
If you step back, what would you describe as the biggest challenges that your system is facing now in an attempt to address social determinants?
If you were to have the chance to reach out to other industry or government leaders to really crack the code on social determinants of health, what questions would you raise?
There's so much value in just prioritization from the top.
