Description:
Access to health and quality health care is a matter of justice. Recent renewed focus and investigation of health disparities and inequity have identified that many can be attributed to the social and economic circumstances in which people live. Social determinants of health are the conditions in which people are born, live, work, learn and play. Addressing social determinants of health is critical for improving health outcomes and reducing health disparities in our community, yet there are challenges to creating and maintaining healthcare, community, and legal interventions to address these determinants within existing systems.
This panel seeks to examine how social determinants of health are being addressed in New York State, and to highlight successes and barriers through discussion of the existing models and potential strategies for innovation and policies to support patients through the use of medical-legal partnerships, and collaborative networks with community-based organizations (CBOs), healthcare providers, and the court system. The panel will offer a discussion on the utility of partnerships between CBOs, healthcare providers, and lawyers to address the social drivers of health, the challenges to their implementation, and policy recommendations to improve health equity and decrease disparities.
