Provider and Staff Perspectives on Screening and Referral for Social Determinants of Health During Perinatal Care: Implications Using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research.

Background: New federal mandates require universal screening and referral for social determinants of health (SDOHs), and evidence exists supporting its integration into primary care practice. However, implementation in maternity care remains understudied and underfunded. To inform maternal health practice, we studied clinical stakeholders' perspectives on SDOH screening and referral knowledge, priority, challenges, and opportunities across four hospital-affiliated obstetrics and gynecology clinics in New Hampshire.
