Addressing Health Care Access Gaps With Digital Solutions
On this episode of Managed Care Cast, Sarah Carroll, MPH, director of the Center for Care Transformation at AVIA, discusses the challenges of implementing digital health in underserved populations and the potential of these solutions to better address health disparities in the United States.
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought disparities in health care to the forefront of the national conversation and simultaneously jump-started widespread use of telehealth and digital solutions to address newly formed health care access gaps.
But even before the pandemic began, the Center for Care Transformation at AVIA was helping members move from reactive, episodic, and uncoordinated care to proactive, longitudinal, and efficient care.
AVIA, a network of 50 leading health systems brought together in a collaborative membership model, offers a range of digital solutions to drive clinical, operational and financial results.
On this episode of Managed Care Cast, we speak with Sarah Carroll, MPH, director of the Center for Care Transformation at AVIA, about the challenges of implementing digital health in underserved populations and the potential of these solutions to better address health disparities in the United States.
