SUMMARY:2019 Fall Conference: Social Determinants of Health: What they are\, why they matter and what health systems are doing
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 1\, 2019\n7:00 AM – Noon\nSheraton Needham Hotel\n100 Cabot Street\, Needham\, MA\n(Continental breakfast and lunch included.) \nHealthcare systems bear growing economic risk under contracts with third party payors and government programs. Focusing on medical care delivery alone is not an effective way of managing population health. Studies show that overall health is primarily — about 60% — determined by the social\, economic\, and physical conditions in the environments in which people live\, learn\, work\, play and worship. \nSOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH (SDOH) include: housing safety\, food availability\, education access/quality\, job opportunities\, healthcare access\, public safety (crime and violence)\, transportation\, recreational opportunities\, social supports and social stressors (such as racial and other forms of discrimination). \nStrategies for addressing SDOH include behavior change interventions (including personalized feedback\, health coaching\, social support for physical activity\, adequate sleep\, weight management\, diabetes management\,  diet counseling and stress management) as well as support products and services (such as mobile health\, websites\, other computer-based applications\, text messaging\, wearable devices\, body and environmental sensors\, and telecommunications). \nThis conference will assist you in understanding the most effective responses to SDOH that will result in improved care\, lower costs\, and better quality of life for the populations we serve. \nOnline Registration \nKeynote Speakers\n\nSandro Galea\, MD\, MPH\, DrPh\, Dean and Robert A.
