Partnerships and prevention are driving new approaches to care across Kentucky, with a focus on improving outcomes for patients, communities, and employers. Danielle Harmon of @ARHHealthcare, Donald Lloyd of UK St. Claire HealthCare, Trudi Matthews of @UK_HealthCare, David Melanson of the @universityofky, Larry Rector of River Valley Health, and Erin Shea of UK Innovate highlighted real-world models—from community health workers to regional collaborations—that are improving access, lowering costs, and connecting patients to care earlier.

Speakers pointed to prevention, workforce development, and meeting patients where they are as key strategies to build healthier communities and a more sustainable healthcare system.

@KentuckyREC Thanks for the opportunity to speak for the 2022 Annual Conference. It was a privilege to co-present with Dr Ginny Gottschalk.

Good analysis by Cindy Mann - Divided Congress means legislative action on health care issues will probably be limited - so expect pivot to Exec branch action. #AAMC22

In a session about social needs/ SDOH w/good summary of the evidence: “patients will tell you their social needs, but you have to ask” and health care providers believe addressing SDOH is part of good health care, but have to know what to do about it. #AAMC2022
