[Camden Coalition @camdenhealth]

Are care management programs effective for reducing hospital readmission rates for individuals w/ complex health & social needs? @aboutKP's award winning “distillation methodology” shows positive results for certain Camden Coalition participants. https://t.co/NGeHTgm3Qt

[Priscilla Wang, MD MPH @priscwang]

@camdenhealth @aboutKP I remember getting a sneak peak of the distillation method and its value - great to see this in press and once again reinforcing the value of care management. Congratulations!

2/ Shout out to co-panelists Katie Garfield from @HarvardCHLPI, Alberto Gonzalez from @USDANutrition, Sheila Hanley from @CMSinnovates, moderator Richard Sheward from @ChildrensHW and the @H2HCollab team! So much exciting SDOH & nutrition equity work happening nationally

[Priscilla Wang, MD MPH @priscwang]

Enjoyed speaking at the Hunger to Health Collaboratory’s event on SDOH innovation & learning from fellow panelists from CMS, USDA, and Harvard Law - unprecedented momentum for health systems to address SDOH: how do we avoid performative work & translate screening into impact?

[Priscilla Wang, MD MPH @priscwang]

Thank you @BeckersHR for covering our paper in @JAMAHealthForum on rethinking the purpose & value of care management in value-based care! Both promise & danger in the current proliferation of care management programs - how to keep patients at the center?

@signaturedoc @JAMAHealthForum Our author list includes our system's Director of Care Management as well as PCPs who lead care management programs. Our piece also includes perspectives from care managers, patients & community partners. Definitely agree it's important to have multiple perspectives included!
