Improve member satisfaction through member-centric care – listening and understanding community member’s health-related social needs and getting them the resources that can help.
Reduce administrative burden, acting as the single point of contracting on behalf of social care providers, providing account management and support to social care providers, and serving as an extension of your care management team.
Meet regulatory requirements through conducting health-related social needs screenings and documenting action based on screening results.
Clinical Providers and Health Systems
Manage referrals to the community rapidly and properly.
Attain shared savings through progressive contracting with managed care organizations.

- Reduce “social admissions” that may not be reimbursed.
- Reduce “social bed days” and delayed discharges due to social factors.
- Reduce preventable readmissions within 30 days and subsequent CMS penalties.
- Improve commercial and NYS/CMS clinical quality measure performance (and therefore revenue) – even with level 1 upside only contracts.
