Improving Patient Outcomes Through Enhanced SDoH Screening and Referral
The Medical Society of Sedgwick County (MSSC) is a membership organization that advocates for the physicians of Sedgwick County Kansas on matters concerning private medical practice and patient care. Established in 1903, MSSC boasts over 1,000 physician members, representing more than 90 percent of practicing physicians in the county.
This project seeks to enhance patient outcomes by optimizing electronic health records (EHR) for identifying, tracking, and managing drivers of health (DOH). The initiative will emphasize the integration of closed-loop referral systems, the improvement of community resource databases, and the training of physicians and community-based organizations (CBOs) to foster a collaborative care approach.
