Health And Human Services Integration: Generating Sustained Health And Equity Improvements

View Publication

This article addresses the knowledge gaps that must be filled to realize the potential of health care and human services integration.

Concurrent increases in evidence about social determinants of health and the use of value-based health care incentives are driving new efforts to integrate health care and human services. Despite expectations that the integration of these complementary services could improve health, reduce health inequities, and reduce potentially avoidable health care use and costs, current evidence on the effectiveness, implementation, and sustainability of such cross-sectoral partnerships is sparse and mixed.
