The Accountable Health Communities (AHC) Model, launched in 2017 by the
Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation, screens beneficiaries for
health-related social needs and supports navigation of beneficiaries
with community services.
In two articles released ahead-of-print this week, authors discuss
addressing health-related social needs in the Accountable Health
Communities Model.
Health Care Impacts Of Resource Navigation For Health-Related Social
Needs In The Accountable Health Communities Model
<[link removed]>
William Parish et al.
In this article, the authors evaluate Medicaid and fee-for-service
Medicare claims
<[link removed]>
from 2015 to 2021 to determine whether the AHC Model reduced acute,
hospital-based service use and led to lower health care spending.
The findings of the paper indicate that there were statistically
significant reductions in emergency department visits for both Medicaid
and fee-for-service Medicare beneficiaries.
Addressing Health-Related Social Needs Via Community Resources:
<[link removed]>Lessons
From Accountable Health Communities
<[link removed]>
Jeanette Renaud et al.
To assess how some AHC Model beneficiaries used community services
available to them, the authors in this study reviewed data submitted by
thirty-one participating bridge organizations from 2018 to 2021.
The authors find that "navigation did not significantly increase the
rate of community service provider connections or the rate of [social]
needs resolution, relative to a randomized control group."
