Upcoming Webinars
Supporting Community-Based Organizations in Social Health Care
Community-based organizations (CBOs) are increasingly recognized as essential partners in addressing the social drivers of health, including food access, housing stability, maternal health, and behavioral health. When Medicaid and Medicare provide coverage for social health services, CBOs may have new opportunities to participate in health care delivery systems. However, in order to be successful, these organizations may need additional support to navigate challenges related to credentialing, billing, compliance, and administrative capacity. This webinar will explore sustainable financing strategies for social health services, common challenges facing CBOs, and the ways in which the current policy environment will impact such Medicaid waivers. Speakers will discuss how philanthropy can help seed and strengthen the needed infrastructure through capacity building, technical assistance, and strategic investments.
