The healthcare industry often focuses on Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) in adult populations, overlooking the unique needs of the pediatric population. This gap leads to inadequate reporting and support for children, leaving their social and health determinants under-addressed. Pediatric specialists, coders, and revenue cycle professionals face challenges in accurately capturing and utilizing SDoH data tailored to the pediatric context, ultimately impacting care quality and resource allocation.
Our exclusive RACmonitor webcast, led by Tiffany Ferguson, LMSW, CMAC, ACM, will bridge the knowledge gap by providing a comprehensive overview of SDoH and its relevance to pediatrics. Tiffany will delve into the current SDoH reporting requirements, introduce the new pediatric Z-codes, and highlight the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration with social work and community resources. Participants will gain actionable insights into accurately capturing and utilizing SDoH data for pediatric patients, leading to improved care outcomes. By the end of the session, participants will be equipped with the knowledge to effectively address SDoH factors in pediatric populations, optimize z-code capture, and foster interdisciplinary collaboration.
Participation in this webcast is crucial for professionals seeking to enhance their understanding and application of SDoH in pediatric care. Attendees will learn to navigate the complexities of pediatric SDoH reporting and coding, ensuring compliance and improving care delivery.
The disparity in SDoH reporting for pediatric populations is largely due to healthcare organizations prioritizing Medicare guidelines, which primarily target adult care. Consequently, state-specific Medicaid or CHIP guidelines, which include pediatric considerations, are often neglected. This lack of pediatric-focused guidelines and codes results in insufficient data capture and analysis, hindering effective care management for children.
