Overview

Managing Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) & Health Equity are at the forefront of the value-based health landscape, in an effort to successfully manage the most vulnerable population and achieve the Triple Aim. These non-medical factors that significantly influence health outcomes play a crucial role in shaping health equity and can lead to disparities in health status within and between communities. Healthcare payers and providers are being greatly challenged to create effective programs and methods that deliver high quality, patient-centric healthcare that significantly improves patient outcomes while dramatically reducing healthcare spending. Innovative strategies within Social Determinants of Health are being utilized to improve the health of the nation’s most vulnerable population through enhanced care coordination and preventative measures that deliver the highest quality of patient care, while significantly reducing costs. Innovative processes have been implemented and are continuing to evolve and expand, including collaborative programs and efforts between Health Plans, Hospitals and Health Systems.

We have created an exciting, high-level forum featuring knowledgeable leaders and executives from the nation's leading Health Plans, Hospitals and Health Systems who will share their perspectives, valuable insights and expertise on how to be best equipped for the rapidly evolving landscape of managing Social Determinants of Health & Health Equity. By attending the 2025 Social Determinants of Health & Health Equity Forum, attendees will benefit from learning about best practices and strategies that have been deployed to address the challenges in transforming the nation’s healthcare to improve and maintain a healthy population while reducing healthcare spending. This exclusive event targets senior level executives in order to maximize educational and networking opportunities. Register today to reserve your seat at the conference and take advantage of early bird discounts.
