Social Determinants of Health Services
It’s more important than ever for healthcare organizations to help combat the social risk factors affecting the people they serve. A thoughtful and organized approach is necessary and the time to act is now. Healthcare organizations need help in creating and maintaining sustainable programs to combat social risk factors. Spring Street Exchange offers a range of services to support health plans to address SDOH challenges.
SDOH Foundational Workshop
As health plans initiate and expand programs to address the unmet social needs of their members, many discover inconsistency and lack of alignment among the leadership team, board, and employees. Implementing SDOH programs and services requires new data, new workflows, new service models and delivery methods, new partnerships, and new ways of measuring success.
SDOH Benchmark Assessment
As the only national database benchmarking healthcare organizations’ efforts to address social determinants of health, Spring Street’s SDOH Benchmark Assessment is designed to provide insights and recommendations to support sustainable and effective programs addressing SDOH.
SDOH Strategy
SDOH Comprehensive Assessment
Expanding on the SDOH Benchmark Assessment, the SDOH Comprehensive Assessment offers additional focus and rigor. Spring Street works with leaders across the health plan to review established policies, procedures, and reports for a deeper understanding of the SDOH work being performed. This close examinations allows for Spring Street to identify gaps and opportunities and provide custom recommendations for how the plan might advance their SDOH programming.
In order to be focused and effective in addressing SDOH, health plans need to create and implement associated strategy. An SDOH strategy drives key decisions about target members, geographies, social needs, and more. Spring Street’s five-part SDOH strategy process uses a data-driven approach to identify goals, conduct market and member analysis inventory capabilities, develop the strategy, and prepare a roadmap for applying the strategy.
Strategic Thinking
As transformation in the healthcare industry is driven by external entrants, technological advances, and innovation from within, we are also on the brink of unprecedented change in an industry that has been historically slow to modernize. Spring Street Exchange helps clients evolve so they can maintain an essential role in healthcare and provide the best possible care and value to patients and members.
Scenario Planning
Spring Street’s methodology for scenario planning helps healthcare organizations explore various versions of the future and their implications. By accessing our virtual scenario planning bundles, Health Plan Alliance members can choose from several available workshops.

Each engagement is custom tailored to the needs of health plan leaders through defining research questions, trends to track, and key topics, and then delivering a Data Pack crafted to support internal scenario planning.
