For the 44th episode of the CIO podcast hosted by Healthcare IT Today, we sat down with Dr. Jennifer Goldman, DO, Chief of Primary Care at Memorial Healthcare System. In this episode we’re discussing Dr. Goldman’s work in Social Determinants of Health (SDoH). First we dive into what she’s done to integrate SDoH data into the EMR and how she’s kept people from over looking it. Next we talk about how to help clinical teams connect patients to the resources that they need. Dr. Goldman shares some stories to tell us the impact these efforts have made. Then, we look at what areas SDoH still needs to improve in. Lastly, Dr. Goldman passes along the best advice that she’s gotten in her career.

Here’s a look at the questions and topics we discuss on this episode:

• What’s been done at your organization to integrate SDoH data into the EMR?
  
• Information is one thing, what has your organization done to make it so SDoH data can’t be overlooked?
  
• How do you help clinical teams, case managers, etc. connect patients to the right community resources?
  
• What’s been the impact of these efforts? Any stories you can share?
  
• Where else do you see holes in what’s being done from an SDoH perspective that still needs to be filled?
  
• What’s the best career advice you’ve ever gotten?
