AGENDA OVERVIEW

The Path to Health Equity: Extracting EHR Data to Address Social Determinants of Health
Presented by: HealthLeaders
10:00 - 11:05 AM EST


About the Session:

As the healthcare industry sets its sights on health inequity, health systems are using technology to identify the social determinants of health that create barriers to care. In many cases, they're using the EHR to gather that data and develop programs that tackle those barriers. This panel will discuss how the EHR can and should be used to gather and analyze data, how new programs are created to address health equity, and how these programs are measured for value.

Panelists:
Chara Abrams, System Director for Health Equity and Community Benefit, CHRISTUS Health
Aroub Khleif, Administrative Director of Innovation, Ambulatory and Clinical Systems, Houston Methodist
