Resource Overview

Population Health Management (PHM) is an evolving concept encompassing a suite of emerging technologies to aggregate, analyze and use data to improve clinical and financial outcomes.  PHM tools enable health centers to identify, monitor and target care to patients within a population. Resources in this section provide a conceptual foundation to help health center staff deepen their understanding of PHM and how the social determinants of health can be used to improve outcomes.

Making a Good First Impression: Digital Patient Intake Solutions

How Health Centers can Use Digital Intake Tools to Support Social Determinants of Health Data Collection

Now more than ever, health centers know that addressing social determinants of health is key to ensuring patients from underserved and disadvantaged groups receive quality, informed, and comprehensive care. This resource explores how health centers can effectively and safely collect critical patient information, including sensitive information like social need screening, through digital patient intake solutions that rely on paper-free, data-smart registration and EHR integration. Health centers can walk through why adding these solutions to their clinics can engage rather than alienate patients, and how to implement these technologies to screen for social risk and improve the patient experience.
