These user groups are telephonic meeting groups, chaired by RISE HCC coding faculty, and made up of professional coders and CDI specialists focused on risk adjusted government programs such as Medicare Advantage, ACA marketplace, and Medicaid lines of business. The coders work for health plans and provider organizations, for the most part, although some work for vendors / service providers or as independent contractors. We also have some actuaries involved in our group meetings, as well as compliance specialists.

The four SDoH user groups are as follows:
Health Plans User Groups
Join a group of health plans across the nation to benchmark best practices and exchange ideas with peers, facilitated by RISE Steering Committee Chairs. Gain insights into other payers’ SDoH efforts with tactical takeaways on funding, contracting issues, lessons learned in operationalizing SDoH pilots (including data sharing, metrics and outcomes) and best practices in convening both internally and externally to ultimately scale SDoH programs. Actively participate, share your ideas, and identify approaches that might make a difference for your organization.
Health Care Providers User Group
Join a group of health care providers, including health systems, hospitals ACO’s, physician practices and more to discuss SDoH best practices with industry peers. Gain insights into how other healthcare providers are partnering across the ecosystem to provide best-in-class care to the most vulnerable populations. Key topics will be focused around what’s working and what’s not in various SDoH programs (food, housing, transport, etc.), tapping into funding streams and lessons learned in operationalizing SDoH pilots (including data sharing, metrics and outcomes). Actively participate, share your ideas, and identify approaches that might make a difference for your organization.
CBO and Non-Profit User Group
Join a group of community-based organizations / non-profits to discuss opportunities and overcoming roadblocks in executing SDoH programs and partnering with other healthcare stakeholders, facilitated by RISE Steering Committee Chairs.

Actively participate, share your ideas, and identify approaches that might make a difference for your organization.
