Strategies for addressing social determinants of health

Review

Which approach best aligns with a systemic-level intervention for addressing social determinants of health?

Systemic interventions target large-scale societal issues such as environmental injustice and redlining, whereas individual and community-level strategies focus on direct patient care and localized efforts.

Review

What role do hospitals play in community-level interventions for social determinants of health?

Hospitals can extend their influence beyond patient care by investing in and collaborating with community organizations to improve social determinants of health, such as housing and economic development.

Review

Why is it crucial to use ICD-10-CM Z codes when addressing social determinants of health in healthcare settings?

ICD-10-CM Z codes facilitate documentation of social needs, allowing healthcare systems to identify patterns, allocate resources effectively, and advocate for policy changes.
