WHG - WHG Update: Recent Developments Impacting Access to Housing, Nutrition, and Other Social Determinants of Health

June 4, 2019

Summary

Much has happened in recent months with respect to social determinants of health, including administrative actions that might impact access to public benefits and health programs both in negative and potentially some positive ways. Developments related to public charge determinations, the calculation of the federal poverty level, housing assistance and nutrition program eligibility, and the removal nondiscrimination protections threaten to weaken health and benefit access for certain vulnerable populations. In other areas, the Administration is moving to place a greater emphasis on social determinants of health for certain Medicare and Medicaid populations and within innovative and cost-saving delivery models.

In the attached memo, we describe a number of upcoming and recent developments and link you to our own analysis as well additive analysis from prominent think tank organizations, where available.
