A #referral is only as strong as what happens after it's made. For #policymakers and #payers evaluating #carecoordination initiatives, technology alone isn't enough. In her latest clip with @AJMC_Journal, Dr. Halima Ahmadi-Montecalvo outlines what it takes to build coordinated care infrastructure that delivers measurable results: โ€ข Equip community organizations with defined roles, sustainable payment mechanisms, shared technology, and shared accountability for what happens after a referral. โ€ข Pair technology with hands-on network development and community capacity building. โ€ข Establish program design and outcome metrics before an initiative launches.

Twenty-five years ago today, New York City and our nation faced one of its darkest days. Yet, through the unthinkable darkness, we saw communities coming together like never before. Across the country, families grieved together, total strangers became lifelines, neighbors carried each other, and first responders ran straight into the heartbreak. That kind of strength doesn't appear out of nowhere in a crisis. It's built in the ordinary, everyday work of showing up for one another. Today, we remember and honor the lives lost and the overwhelming power of communities choosing not to let each other go.

No family should fall through the cracks when seeking support. Thatโ€™s the belief behind the closed-loop referral network Dr. Henna Qureshi relies on as a pediatrician at Inova Cares for Childrenโ€”one that connects families directly to trusted community partners, rather than handing them a list that may lead nowhere. @InovaHealth is one of many partners across #UniteVirginia, a statewide network built with Unite Us to connect Virginians to care.

Back-to-school season highlights a reality many families face: as kids head back to school, one of the most common but overlooked challenges is access to affordable school uniforms. Thatโ€™s why having a connected network like Arizonaโ€™s #CommunityCares matters, so providers can quickly identify local resources that help kids show up confident and ready to learn. ๐ŸŽค Jane Ramirez of Childrenโ€™s Clinics for Rehabilitative Services explains how #CommunityCares helped one family get the uniforms their children needed. ๐ŸŽฅ Watch the full testimonial: bit.ly/3UaS7N6 ๐Ÿ’ก Learn more about CommunityCares, powered by Unite Us and our work with @ContextureHIT: bit.ly/4gfbPzR

$164 saved per #Medicaid participant, per month. Thatโ€™s what North Carolinaโ€™s Healthy Opportunities Pilots (#HOP) achieved while also reducing emergency department visits, hospital admissions, food insecurity, housing instability, and transportation barriers. The results offer compelling evidence for a bigger question: what becomes possible when Medicaid invests in the factors that shape health beyond clinical care? In a new @statnews article, former @ncdhhs secretaries Mandy Cohen and Kody Kinsley unpack what they learned in #NorthCarolina and what it could mean for Medicaid programs nationwide. On September 16, Kody will continue the conversation during our webinar, ๐‘ป๐’‰๐’† ๐‘น๐’๐’‚๐’… ๐’•๐’ ๐‘ฉ๐’†๐’•๐’•๐’†๐’“ ๐‘ฏ๐’†๐’‚๐’๐’•๐’‰ ๐‘ถ๐’–๐’•๐’„๐’๐’Ž๐’†๐’”, exploring how leaders can measure progress, understand which outcomes move first, and turn investment into lasting health impact. ๐Ÿ‘‰ Save your seat for the webinar: bit.ly/4x0Guqz ๐Ÿ”— Read the article: bit.ly/45zm0sW

A referral sent is not the same as care delivered. ๐Ÿค When care programs rely on unconfirmed referrals or manual tracking, critical gaps can emerge. A referral may appear successful in the #data, but without follow-through, we donโ€™t know whether someone actually received the support they needed. In a recent video interview with AJMC, Dr. Halima Ahmadi-Montecalvo, VP of Research & Evaluation at Unite Us, explains why closing the loop is essential to building social care systems that deliver measurable, sustainable impact. True success means having #visibility into the full care journey: Was the referral received? Was the service delivered? Was the personโ€™s need met? Thatโ€™s how we move from measuring activity to understanding impact. Watch the full interview from @AJMC_Journal: ๐Ÿ”— bit.ly/4qiCGy9
