Most of the influencers of the determinants of health aren’t health professionals. Doctors see the results of failures in education, housing, nutrition…Medical professionals and health records systems could be used to monitor and provide indicators of the success or failure of other enterprises that influence health determinants.

Hi Raphael,
The two things that come to mind for me are:
1. Clinicians and health professionals do not have ehr-compatible tools that allow for standardized screening, monitoring, and brief intervention of sdoh and health related social needs of patients/clients. Therefore, we struggle to identify problems and develop solutions. I am part of a group in BC and I know there are some projects in the SPARK study in Ontario, working on potential solutions.
2. Primary care in Canada is still very siloed and most team based clinics that are promoted as gold standard continue to be difficult to scale-up. Without team based care and intersector collaboration, we will not be able to achieve the aspirational goals sdoh advocates all want to see.
Cheers,
Justin

Subject: Seeking Perspectives on Addressing Social Determinants of Health
Hello,
Dr. Raphael, Ontario Health is building a social determinants program and we are reaching out to subject matter experts to help inform our work. We are hoping you would be interested in participating in a 60-minute interview in January to cover the following objectives:
Objectives of Interview
1. Validate and expand our learnings of the current landscape of work that is advancing a commitment to address the determinants of health impacting population health outcomes.
2. Gain a deeper understanding of the principles required to enable a health system approach to addressing social determinants.
3. Use this information to develop a guidance document/framework to ensure frontline providers and other health professionals have the tools and information they need to address the distinct needs of individuals and communities.
We would sincerely appreciate the opportunity to learn from your expertise. If you are interested in meeting with us, can you please provide the name and contact information of a team member whom we can contact to book an interview time. We have attached a background document with more details on our work for reference.
Thank you in advance for your kind consideration and we look forward to your reply.
Sincerely,
Christine
