Social Determinants of Health

NEW Meeting time for the SDoH Working Group:

Third Tuesday of the month at 12:00 (EDT/EST).

Our first meeting will be on Tue, Sep 20th: 12:00 to 1:00 pm EDT.

This will be a transitionary meeting. The group will be newly facilitated by Jennnifer Lawson. In this meeting we look forward to hearing a summary of the work of 2021-22 SDoH Working Group by Marcy Antonio and Annalijn Conklin and discussing future priorities of this group with respect to work on SDoH data standards.

Overview: Explore how to incorporate social determinants of health (SDOH) concepts into digital health systems. SDOH are the social and economic factors that have an influence on a person's health. Inequities occur when a person experiences poorer outcomes and quality of care based on who they are, where they live or what they have. The working group will focus on data standards for the collection, use and sharing of SDOH data within digital health systems can address these inequities.

Focus for 2022-23: The Infoway SDOH working group will be defining its focus, scope and goals facilitated by group discussion at the upcoming Sept meeting.

Hope to see you there!
