In the "Drivers'" Seat: How to Improve Drivers of Health, from Vision to Impact.

Despite focusing on drivers of health, or social determinants of health, for more than a decade, health care organizations have made minimal progress in improving these factors and associated health outcomes. This data- and theory-driven analysis looks at (1) why that is the case and (2) how organizational leaders and operators can go about correcting it. The authors' research finds that lack of progress is often due to ill-fit, entrenched business models that were optimized for a fee-for-service environment and cannot easily pivot to focus on drivers of health.
