Presentation 1

Title: 2022 Presentation Title: Social Determinants of Heath, HCCs and Z-Codes

Presenter:  Phil Goyeau, Healthcare Solutions Executive, 3M Health Information Systems, Inc.
Summary: Social Determinants of Health have become increasingly important in terms of value-based care and have become a high priority for payers and government entities.  Z-codes are used to capture data on the social needs of their patient population which identify non-medical factors that can have a profound impact on the well-being of your patient population.  While HCCs will continue to be the foundation for population health-based reimbursement, new approaches to Health Equity have driven added coding requirements around Z-codes.

Objectives:

After completing this session, you will be able to:

• Review Social Determinants of Health and how factors such as health literacy, inadequate housing and inequalities in accessibility to health care can drive poor patient outcomes.
• Revisit HCCs part of the foundation for managing patient's chronic disease burdens and how providers are reimbursed to care for these populations.
• Review Z-codes which are the ICD-10 encounter reason codes used to document Social Determinants of Health data.
• Discuss changes in technology and artificial intelligence being developed to adapt to changes in coding requirements.
