This Commonwealth Fund report on using community-health workers to help patients navigate the healthcare system by, in part, addressing their socio-economic needs reminded us at Cambridge Management Group of our work to improve community health in various places around America, most recently at Jackson Care Connect, in Oregon, and at Federally Qualified Health Centers.
It should be noted that community-health workers are common in most Developed Nations, but not in the U.S., with its very high healthcare prices and mediocre outcomes.
