SDOH Points of Light 2024 Case Study 12
Reducing Costs by Practicing Whole-Person Care
Patients with complex care needs are expensive for healthcare organizations to treat; they require more intensive care, and some patients overutilize resources when they are repeatedly readmitted to the hospital. To reduce preventable readmissions, the collaborators in this case study worked together with clinics and community resources to save on costs and align their approach to addressing patients’ social needs. They achieved their goal by using Lightbeam Health Solutions to identify underlying social problems and enhance patient engagement.
