Socially Determined, GroundGame.Health Announce Strategic Partnership Leveraging SDOH Insights to Close Care Gaps

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GroundGame.Health (GGH), an industry leader at removing barriers to care, has engaged Socially Determined to deliver individual and community-level social risk data for a 155,000-member population.

The proprietary risk data and scoring platform SocialScape^® will help GroundGame.Health focus its efforts through identification and prioritization on high-risk members for social care intervention.

GroundGame.Health’s enhanced visibility into social risk supports closing care gaps and improving outcomes for the country’s most vulnerable populations. Beyond removing barriers to care, their efforts also radically reduce medical costs through social health intervention resulting in a reduction in inpatient admissions, less non-emergent ED utilization, increased member retention, and increased compliance with preventive care measures.

Socially Determined’s CEO Trenor Williams, MD, noted: “This partnership is a powerful validation of the role Socially Determined plays in enabling high-performing, risk-bearing organization success under value-based care.” Adding, “We’re incredibly proud to help GroundGame.Health’s mission; it’s an exciting opportunity for us to yet again demonstrate our impact at scale for this and future projects with such an innovative organization.”

“We’re excited about our partnership with Socially Determined and the added capability of SocialScape within our platform, Implify^®, to proactively engage high-risk members to ensure we quickly identify, prioritize and solve the barriers that are preventing them from getting needed care,” said Susan Rawlings Molina, co-founder and CEO at GroundGame.Health. Implify is an innovative, HITRUST-certified platform designed to facilitate critical data sharing across all stakeholders – health plans, providers, government entities, health information exchanges (HIEs), electronic health record (EHR) systems, and community-based organizations (CBOs).
