Download the report." width="100%" height="100%"><p>Capturing health-related social needs (HRSN) data effectively and efficiently helps provider organizations leverage these data to meet the Quadruple Aim objectives: enhancing the patient experience, improving population health, reducing costs and improving the work life of health care providers.</p><p>Connecting patients with the resources they need to experience better health outcomes is a vital part of the HRSN screening process. With the right technology and resources, hospitals and health systems can identify inefficiencies and close gaps that could challenge the successful conclusion of that journey.</p><p>A new AHA Market Scan Trailblazers report, <a href="/aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2025-04-21-driving-drivers">“Driving the Drivers,”</a> explores how providers can leverage technology and workflow optimization to improve HRSN screening and connect patients with resources to address their health-related social needs.</p><h2>Personalize Care Connections</h2><p>Deploying enterprise technology that scales across the entire health system can connect patients with the right social network programs and resources and aid in tracking low-risk, rising-risk and high-risk populations. Key benefits of this approach include:</p><ul><li><strong>Send and track closed-loop referrals from start to finish to see whether patients obtained services.</strong></li><li><strong>Share personalized resource lists with patients, giving them easy access to the support they need.</strong></li><li><strong>Find and share tailored resources that meet each patient’s unique care needs.</strong></li></ul><p>By integrating HRSN data into electronic health records (EHRs), providers can identify patterns and trends at scale across communities that may not be immediately evident when considering individual medical data alone.</p><p>Overall, EHR and HRSN data integration support a holistic approach to health care. This empowers organizations across the care continuum to address population health challenges at a systemic level. By recognizing and responding to HRSN efficiently, proactively and at scale, providers can reduce health care costs and better manage population health outcomes.</p><h2>Standardize HRSN Data Management</h2><p>New Mexico-based Presbyterian Healthcare Services (PHS) has standardized its approach to automating HRSN screening, reaping multifold benefits in the process.</p><p>Toni Grinstead, health equity consultant and senior program manager for community health, oversees Presbyterian’s initiatives to address social drivers of health, including an automated health-related social needs screening workflow. Leigh Caswell, vice president for community and health equity, oversees the network’s community health worker team and its social needs screening and referral work.</p><p>Before automating the HRSN screening process, Grinstead and Caswell describe the health system’s approach as “scattershot.”</p><p>Some of PHS’ clinic sites still used paper, rather than their EHR tool, to screen patients. That created a twofold data entry problem. Clinicians or support staff sometimes would enter data inaccurately into the EHR system or not at all if paper screens went missing. Other challenges included the lack of standardized workflows to screen all patients across all settings and the lack of integrated screening results into the EHR system and each patient’s EHR.</p><h2>Harness the Power of HRSN Data</h2><p>With PHS conducting more than 1.5 million HRSN screenings annually across nine hospitals, 40 primary or specialty clinics and five urgent care centers, effectively managing these data became critically important.</p><p>In early 2024, PHS migrated to an automated approach to managing HRSN screening data. Three systems — HRSN screening, EHR and portal — now work in concert to power the HRSN screening process as part of routine health care. This approach eliminated paper screenings, standardized screening workflows across care sites and integrated patients’ HRSN screening data into their EHRs and patient portals.</p><p>“Having technology support our [HRSN] efforts is really powerful. We know a lot more about what our communities need. We know a lot more about what resources exist in our communities. Now we can use those data to influence policy and investment at the state level and at the local level,” Caswell says.</p><p>Patients now can answer HRSN screening questions through the patient portal before scheduled visits, eliminating that responsibility from busy clinicians and clinical support staff. Screening workflows now are standard across all sites of care.</p><p>PHS asks 12 questions in eight HRSN domains: housing, food, transportation, utilities, interpersonal violence, alcohol use, substance use and tobacco use. Screening results now appear directly in patients’ records, enabling the care team to determine if patients are experiencing a social need. If so, the system automatically generates a list of recommended resources in patients’ after-visit summaries directly within the EHR.</p><p>“Because everything is interoperable, the technology allows us to screen patients every six months, and every person who interacts with that patient has access to those data,” Grinstead says. “Patients [and caregivers] don’t have to answer the same questions over and over again during an episode of care. That improves the patient experience and the caregiver experience.”</p><p><a href="/aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2025-04-21-driving-drivers"><strong>Download the full Trailblazers report</strong></a> to learn more about the power of automating the HRSN screening and data management process and explore how Yale New Haven Health has improved its workflow efficiency.</p></div><div class="col-md-4"><p><a href="/center" title="Visit the AHA Center for Health Innovation landing page."><img src="/sites/default/files/inline-images/logo-aha-innovation-center-color-sm.jpg" data-entity-uuid="7ade6b12-de98-4d0b-965f-a7c99d9463c5" alt="AHA Center for Health Innovation logo" width="721" height="130" data-entity- type="file" class="align-center"></a></p><p><a href="/center/form/innovation-subscription"><img src="/sites/default/files/2019-04/Market_Scan_Call_Out_360x300.png" data-entity-uuid data-entity-type alt width="360" height="300"></a></p></div></div></div>.field_featured_image { position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } .featured-image{ position: absolute; overflow: hidden; clip: rect(0 0 0 0); height: 1px; width: 1px; margin: -1px; padding: 0; border: 0; } h2 { color: #9d2235; } Tue, 22 Apr 2025 06:15:00 -0500 Operational Excellence Driving the Drivers /aha-center-health-innovation-market-scan/2025-04-21-driving-drivers <div class="raw-html-embed"> </div><div> /* Banner_Title_Overlay_Bar */ .Banner_Title_Overlay_Bar { position: relative; display: block; overflow: hidden; max-width: 1170px; margin: 0px auto 25px auto; } .Banner_Title_Overlay_Bar h1 { position: absolute; bottom: 40px; color: #003087; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, .8); width: 100%; padding: 20px 40px; font-size: 3em; box-shadow: 0 3px 8px -5px rgba(0, 0, 0, .6); } @media (max-width:991px) { .Banner_Title_Overlay_Bar h1 { bottom: 0px; margin: 0px; font-size: 2.5em; } } @media (max-width:767px) { .Banner_Title_Overlay_Bar h1 { font-size: 2em; text-align: center; text-indent: 0px; padding: 10px 20px; } } @media (max-width:530px) { .Banner_Title_Overlay_Bar h1 { position: relative; background-color: #63666A22; } } /* Banner_Title_Overlay_Bar // */ <header class="Banner_Title_Overlay_Bar"><img src="/sites/default/files/2024-01/Trailblazers_Amazon_banner_1170x250.png" alt="Cover of Driving the Drivers: How hospitals and health systems can leverage technology and workflow optimization to address health-related social needs" width="1168" height="250"><div><h1>Driving the Drivers</h1></div></header></div> h2{ margin-top: 0px; } p.center_Intro { color: #002855; line-height: 1.2em; font-size: 30px; margin: 10px 0 25px 0; font-weight: 700; font-size: 2em; } p.center_Lead { color: #63666A; font-weight: 300; line-height: 1.4; font-size: 21px; } <div class="row"><div class="col-sm-8"><h2>How hospitals and health systems can leverage technology and workflow optimization to address health-related social needs.</h2><p>Addressing a patient’s social care needs can be a challenging journey for hospitals and health systems.

A recent Gradient Flow survey covering generative AI in health care revealed that 65% of respondents are actively considering or implementing generative AI solutions.</p><p>To identify market opportunities, CB Insights analyzed the landscape and mapped 87 health care and life sciences companies with generative AI products across 20 markets.</p><h2>3 Key Insights from the Report</h2><h3><span>1</span> <span>|</span> Investors and health systems are betting on generative AI to solve costly provider workflow inefficiencies.</h3><p>Clinical documentation startups secured four of health care’s five largest generative AI deals last year while simultaneously gaining significant commercial traction. For example, <a href="https://www.abridge.com/" target="_blank" title="Abridge homepage">Abridge</a> partnered with more than 12 health systems, including Mayo Clinic and Kaiser Permanente, while Ambience Healthcare worked with Alpine Physician Partners to reduce daily charting time by 74%, the report states.</p><p>Abridge completed the largest deal — a $150 million Series C round — and followed this with a $250 million Series D deal just last month. Abridge also established business relationships with more than a dozen health systems in 2024 alone, and it has continued to expand its network this year, working with Duke Health, UNC Health and Inova Health Systems so far.</p><h3><span>2</span> <span>|</span> Specialized AI models, powered by advanced clinical reasoning and domain-specific knowledge, demonstrate higher accuracy in health care workflows.</h3><p>Health care technology companies are taking an interest in this specialized approach to extract more accurate insights across their datasets and develop new features to help providers elevate their operational efficiency.

The pandemic fundamentally altered consumer behavior and expectations while reshaping traditional health care service delivery models. Large systems can experience delays in decision-making amid layers of review and internal deliberations. Add to this the entry of nontraditional provider competitors and technology disruptions and it becomes an imperative for health systems to continuously examine and improve operational and governance models. This Knowledge Exchange e-book examines how health system leaders are changing governance, decision-making and their operating models for the future.</p><div class="row">@media (min-width:768px){ .EDsponsorFloat{ float:right;

automation</h2><p>As hospitals and health systems prepare for 2025, reinforcing financial stability and cash flow in the face of rising costs, declining reimbursements and workforce challenges is top of mind. Health care leaders need full visibility into key performance indicators (KPIs) and the drivers of performance in revenue cycle management (RCM) outcomes to make informed decisions.</p><p>By reducing redundant tasks, artificial intelligence (AI) streamlines documentation and processes, which in turn can help lower denial rates and boost patient satisfaction. This Knowledge Exchange e-book examines KPIs vital for revenue-cycle outcomes and focuses on how AI and other advanced technologies may drive RCM improvements and the delivery of high-quality patient care.</p><div class="row">@media (min-width:768px){ .EDsponsorFloat{ float:right; } } @media (max-width:767px){ .EDLinkFloat{ position:relative; left:27%; } .EDsponsorFloat { text-align:center } } <div class="col-sm-6"><a class="btn btn-wide btn-primary EDLinkFloat" href="#DownloadFile" title="AHA Knowledge Exchange | Optimize Your Hospital’s Revenue Cycle for Efficient, Patient-Centered Operations" data-view-context="top-level-view">Download the Report</a></div><div class="col-sm-6"><div class="EDsponsorFloat">Sponsored by: <a href="https://www.r1rcm.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow"><img src="/sites/default/files/2024-03/Logo_R1_834x313.jpg" alt="R1 Logo" width="100%" height="100%"></a></div></div></div></div></div>.sp_CTA5_holder { margin-top:0px; border-bottom: solid 1px #555; padding-bottom: 50px; } .sp_CTA5_holder_last { border-bottom: solid 0px #555; } .sp_CTA5_holder >div{ overflow: auto; } .sp_CTA5_holder ul { list-style: none; /* Remove default bullets */ padding-left: 0px; /*width: calc(100% - 15%);*/ /*margin: 50px auto 0;*/ margin:auto 50px; } .sp_CTA5_holder ul li{ margin-bottom:7px; line-height: 1.5em; font-size:16px; } .sp_CTA5_holder ul li::before { content: " "; font-size: 1em; margin-right: 10px; display: inline-block; height: 12px; background-color: #9d2235; width: 12px; position: relative; top: 0px; -webkit-transform: rotate(45deg); -moz-transform: rotate(45deg); -o-transform: rotate(45deg); } .sp_CTA5_holder ul li{ padding-left:23px; text-indent:-23px; } .body ol>li, .body ul>li{ font-size:16px: } .sp_CTA5_holder h2 { color: #002855; /*! line-height: 2em; */ font-size: 2.15em; margin: 0 0 15px 0; /*! font-size: 30px; */ } .sp_CTA5_holder h3 { /*color: #002855;*/ line-height: 1em; /*font-size: 1.5em;*/ margin-bottom: 25px; margin-top:5px; font-size: 28px; } .sp_CTA5_section{ margin-top: 25px } .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow { /*background-color:green;*/ /* just a visual */ text-align: center } .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow { padding-bottom:75px; /* must match the padding on the img*/ margin: 0px; } .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow img{ width: calc(100% - 35px - 15px); -webkit-box-shadow: 50px -75px 0px 0px rgba(185, 217, 235, 1); -moz-box-shadow: 50px -75px 0px 0px rgba(185, 217, 235, 1); box-shadow: 50px -75px 0px 0px rgba(185, 217, 235, 1); position: relative; top: 75px; max-width: 490px; } @media (max-width:990px){ .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow img{ max-width: 350px;} } @media (max-width:990px){ .sp_CTA5_ImgShadow { padding-bottom:75px; /* must match the padding on the img*/ margin: 0px; margin-right: 40px } } <div class="row spacer sp_CTA5_holder sp_CTA5_holder_last"><div class="col-md-12"><h3>9 ways health leaders are leveraging automation and AI to improve financial performance and service quality</h3><div class="sp_CTA5_section"><ul><li><strong>Establish a team to analyze denial patterns</strong>. Consider utilizing robotic process automation (RPA) to keep up with changing payer and plan policies that may result in denials.</li><li><strong>Reduce days in accounts receivable by using predictive modeling</strong> based on historical data from payer denials and scoring of accounts to assign work to teams.</li><li><strong>Reduce denials by using automation in the electronic health record (EHR)</strong> to identify appropriate coding for particular services, which can be shared with specialist providers.</li><li><strong>Use RPA to automate eligibility verification and registration processes</strong> in order to optimize workflows and operations.</li><li><strong>Consider AI functionality to efficiently create clinical documentation improvement alerts</strong>, which will help staff identify accounts and claims in need of additional clinical information.</li><li><strong>Implement computer-assisted coding to drive down “Discharged Not Final Billed” accounts</strong> and consider autonomous where feasible to alleviate coding staff shortages and allow coders to focus on more complex cases.</li><li><strong>Utilize AI and RPA to assist with drafting appeal letters</strong> in order to streamline steps and reduce administrative burden on staff and clinicians.</li><li><strong>Employ a payer scorecard</strong> with denial analytics and predictive modeling to assist in Joint Operating Committee (JOC) meetings with payers.</li><li><strong>Craft a patient-centric financial experience</strong> using AI to create a transparent and flexible billing
