Ounce of Care

I'm just over a month into my time at Ounce of Care and am just so proud to be part of this team. Ounce provides tech enabled resident services for affordable housing communities across the US, with a goal of building community and connecting folks to health and social services. Huge thank you to Sarah Ruth Boyer Hendrix for connecting me to the team and to Rachel Munsie for building something so exciting to be a part of! As the Head of Operations, I've had the opportunity to learn from and help grow our incredible Community Team -- we are hiring all over right now, check out our open roles and let me know if you're interested! https://lnkd.in/e5wHeSC4

?? From Trunk of Treat, to Fall Fest, to Haunted Movie Night … October was a busy, SPOOKTACULAR on-site month across all of Ounce’s markets! ?? Our incredible Community Leads work day-in and day-out with their residents (both on-site and virtually) to promote physical and mental well-being for all. ?

Thank you AmeriHealth Caritas for the invite to the Washington Business Journal Health Equity Forum last week! Alex Orfinger moderated a captivating discussion with Christopher J. King, PhD, FACHE, followed by a panel with Karen Dale from AmeriHealth Caritas, Carrie Stoltzfus from Food & Friends, Kimberley M. from Holy Cross Health and Mieka Wick from the The J. Willard and Alice S. Marriott Foundation. Dylan Owens, MPH, who leads Ounce's community partnerships & programming, shared that it was great to hear such a diverse group of businesses, insurance payors, hospitals, philanthropists, and community-based organizations strategize about how we can collaborate and innovate to improve health outcomes and eliminate disparities in the region.

Thank you MedCity News for the mention — “Patient engagement is essential for achieving the goals of value-based care (VBC). Success requires both novel VBC models as well as moving care beyond the clinic walls to meet patients where they are.” We couldn’t agree more. - - - “Here we name just a few among a growing number of companies that are delivering care in the home or outside the typical provider setting: Ounce of Care is a private-sector solution that, similar to New York’s MRT program, also provides coordinated care within affordable housing properties and includes services such as referrals to primary care, support in enrolling in Medicaid and food and utility assistance programs, and on-site community health events.” #medicaid #affordablehousing #sdoh #managedcare #residentservices #healthequity https://lnkd.in/gE_CWbJN
