Powering a better social safety net.

[Findhelp @itsfindhelp]

Technology can route a referral, but it cannot manufacture staff, food, or shelter.

In episode 16 of our 𝘕𝘰 𝘞𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘋𝘰𝘰𝘳 podcast, host Amy Gordona sits down with Paul Sorenson, Co-Founder of the St. Louis Regional Data Alliance and Chief Impact Officer at the Lewis and Clark Information Exchange. Paul brings a grounded perspective from his background as a frontline social worker, academic researcher, and health data leader to discuss social care interoperability.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀: 
📈 The referral gap: Why fixed-grant CBOs struggle with uncompensated referral volume
📈 The screening dilemma: What happens to patient trust when hospitals screen for needs they cannot resolve
📈 Community Care Hubs as a “translation layer” bridging healthcare and community care
📈 Recognizing that data follows funding

It's not a question of 𝘪𝘧 payers should be investing in community organizations, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 "What are the best vehicles to do so?".

This is the take of Paul Sorenson, the Chief Impact Officer at the Lewis & Clark Information Exchange.

Paul highlights the need for Community Care Hubs (like our customer @CamdenHealth) to act as "translation layers" between healthcare organizations and CBOs. In episode 16 of 𝘕𝘰 𝘞𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘋𝘰𝘰𝘳, he outlines why technology alone cannot solve community disconnection.
