The largest share of health care payments are
made by the Medicare and Medicaid programs, and both are moving
aggressively to allow insurers and providers to offer a range of
services and benefits to address social determinants of health (SDOH).
The Medicare agency has recently expanded Medicare Advantage benefits to
allow non-medical benefits to be included in benefit design starting in
2019. Multiple states are advancing large Medicaid contracts for at-risk
patient identification and intervention, and an SDOH “arms race” is
underway across the healthcare industry. Accountable Care Organizations
(ACOs) participating in the Medicare Shared Savings Program share many
of the same incentives to address SDOH as insurers do. Based in one of DC's Opportunity Zones (OZs), Nightingale will leverage the OZ statute (passed in 2017 with final regs issued in late December 2019) to make major evidence-based investments in anti-poverty and complex care initiatives in partnership with insurers, such as housing, food security, non-urgent medical transport, community health workers and managed long-term care. By concentrating efforts in opportunity zones, Nightingale Partners is able to leverage the enormous tax benefits and incentives while investing in communities where the need for social interventions, and the potential for return on investment, is greatest. |
