United States Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy, has called attention to the nation's public health crisis of loneliness, isolation, and lack of social connection - an issue that is especially prevalent among older adults. In his latest Forbes column, SCAN CEO Sachin H. Jain, MD, MBA joins social scientist Robert Putnam to discuss the impacts of social isolation on health, and Putnam's new film, "Join or Die", which highlights the need for community action and initiatives like SCAN's Togetherness program, which connects members with a friendly caller to build social connections and combat isolation: https://ow.ly/9Luw50SLoVe

Addressing the homelessness crisis requires more than temporary solutions to ensure long-term success. "Getting homeless patients established with primary care doctors and nurses — who visit them on the streets, in parks, or wherever they happen to be — can prevent frequent and expensive emergency room trips and hospitalizations, potentially saving money for insurers and taxpayers," said SCAN CEO Sachin H. Jain, MD, MBA. "Even though shelter and housing are scarce, Healthcare in Action’s goal is to get patients healthy enough to live stable, independent lives." KFF Health News's Angela Hart highlights how SCAN's Healthcare in Action (HIA) is partnering with cities, hospitals, and insurers to pioneer more comprehensive, sustainable healthcare for the unhoused population: https://lnkd.in/gQVbk8rM Special thanks to Angela Hart for accompanying our HIA team on the road to observe the care we deliver.
