Health Strategies Radio

"Health Strategies Radio" is the new podcast by the California Improvement Network (CIN). During this series, you will learn methods for building effective partnerships between health organizations and community-based organizations (CBOs) that offer services such as housing, nutrition, and transportation to patients. You will hear real-life struggles and triumphs from those doing the work and gain ideas you can use in your own partnerships for addressing social needs that impact health. As health care delivery organizations increasingly screen and refer patients to CBOs, alignment of their efforts for screening and referral is essential. Without successful partnerships between health care organizations and CBOs, patients can be left with unmet needs and on their own to navigate the complicated process of finding the right services. This podcast series highlights successes, challenges, and ideas for how to ensure patients are receiving the best support through health care organizations and CBO partnerships. This podcast series is delivered by the California Improvement Network, a learning and action network that aims to advance the quadruple aim by identifying and spreading better ideas for care delivery. CIN is a project of the California Health Care Foundation and managed by Healthforce Center at UCSF. The learnings in this podcast series are part of CIN’s priority area for learning and action: addressing social needs that impacts health.
