“It’s not enough to just support our community partners in their
work. In order to create real change, we, as a community, are
rethinking the way we approach social health and clinical health.
By joining the Alamo Area Community Network, we are able to
integrate the way we address health-related social needs into the
same system as our San Antonio community partners,” said Humana
Texas Medicare President Bill White.
The nonprofits, government agencies, providers, payers, and
other social service organizations that are a part of the AACN,
which use Signify Health’s proprietary technology platform, are
able to collaborate compliantly and securely to assure people’s
needs are being addressed and close the loop on referrals between
AACN participants. The partnership will not only ensure needs are
being met and that community services are being accessed, but will
create an understanding of the effects on clinical outcomes for
individuals and families over time.
AACN’s innovative approach continues to support community
members like never before, as adoption grows and an increasing
number of people are getting the assistance they need.
Community-based organizations helping to meet needs will be able to
more effectively manage their resources and know their clients
better. The AACN is convened by the Kronkosky Charitable Foundation
and cofounded by Autism Lifeline Links, United Way of San Antonio
and Bexar County and the Warm Springs Foundation.
“True collaboration across such a broad spectrum of
organizations – social service providers, healthcare providers,
philanthropies, government agencies, health plans – is only
possible through trust. Humana is a trusted influencer in San
Antonio and a great partner for the AACN,” said Cara Magrane,
Director of Initiatives and Partnerships, Kronkosky Charitable
Foundation.
Humana’s partnership with the AACN continues its commitment to
increasing the number of Healthy Days for San Antonio residents.
Through the establishment of the San Antonio Health Advisory Board,
Bold Goal has facilitated cross-sector groups in creating
community-wide initiatives to impact diabetes, food insecurity, and
loneliness and isolation. Through the tenure of the San Antonio’s
Bold Goal, San Antonio has seen an 8.6% reduction in unhealthy days
for Humana Medicare Advantage members.
Signify Health’s partnership with Humana also includes Signify
Health’s experienced Social Care Coordinators who will provide
outreach to Humana members to help them resolve their unmet needs
and achieve their best health and well-being.
“Signify Health is guided by a commitment to be a catalyst for
changing a model of care that has left far too many clinical,
behavioral and social care needs unaddressed,” says Peter Boumenot,
Chief Product Officer, Signify Health. “Through our partnership
with Humana and the AACN, we are able to connect more San Antonians
with the services that can help them overcome barriers to their
health and, at the same time, create collaborative care communities
of organizations aligned around measurably improving health
outcomes for the people they serve.”
Humana recognizes and champions innovation within communities,
where the co-creation of solutions through community partnerships
and collaboration is shaping the future of healthcare.
