build a statewide network of community-based organizations in Ohio.
– This new network will provide social services
to CareSource’s members throughout the state of Ohio with referrals

CareSource, a nonprofit multi-state managed care plan has partnered with Healthify to build a statewide network of community-based organizations in Ohio. The new network will provide social services to CareSource’s members throughout the state with referrals to address Social Determinants of Health (SDoH). This new collaboration will expand upon the existing CareSource Life Services program and Healthify OH social services network.
The network will be made up of community organizations that
provide a range of services that address SDOH such as food insecurity,
lack of transportation, unemployment, inadequate housing, and financial
instability. CareSource will also use Healthify’s population
analysis modeling to identify social risk across OH and target
hard-to-reach members to ensure they are connected to critical services.

By layering this on top of clinical and cost data, CareSource can meaningfully
improve member engagement among membership while tracking their long-term
outcomes. Please visit the following link to learn more and join the statewide
