SUMMARY:Defining Outcomes From the Start
DESCRIPTION:The first step in developing an NMDOH program is creating clear outcome goals and metrics to capture progress toward those goals. Many organizations use logic models as a framework or tool for this purpose. Deborah Ganelin\, Vice President of Memorial Hermann Community Benefit Corporation\, recently led a discussion to introduce logic models\, provide an example\, and share her evolution in using the tool. \n\n\n\nClick to view the presentation slides\, here.

SUMMARY:Getting Started with Evaluation: Practical Examples From the Early Stages of Measurement Journey 
DESCRIPTION:Knowing where to begin with evaluation can often feel daunting. Participants heard from 2 different organizations on how they decided what to measure\, where they found the data\, and how the findings informed program design. Upon completion review of this session\, participants should feel more confident in their approaches towards evaluation. \n\n\n\nView the slides from this presentation\, here.

SUMMARY:Patient Centered Approaches for Collecting NMDOH Data
DESCRIPTION:Despite the importance of non-medical drivers of health (NMDOH) in health outcomes\, little is known about the best practices for screening and referral during clinical encounters. Engaging clinic teams\, fostering a supportive culture to collect and address NMDOH\, and designing patient-centered workflows are vital to the success of NMDOH programs. \n\n\n\nView the slides from this presentation\, here.

SUMMARY:Prescription to Nutrition: Integrating Food Farmacies into Clinical Practice
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Hope Galvan of Harris Health System shared the story of the system’s program from conception to planning\, and implementation to evaluation. The Harris Health System Food Farmacy has served over 6\,000 patients and their families. For patients enrolled in the Food Rx program\, nutrition security has led to hemoglobin A1c reduction and an increase in fresh fruits and vegetable consumption. This webinar covers the step-by-step process undertaken at Harris Health\, including the challenges encountered along the way. \n\n\n\nView the presenters slides from this event\, here.

SUMMARY:NMDOH Program Development in Community-Based Provider Settings
DESCRIPTION:Successful NMDOH interventions require that providers strategically develop their internal NMDOH processes and policies. Providers must identify the overall benefit to their patient population\, obtain buy-in\, develop effective screening and referral workflows\, and engage their community.  \n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, rural and urban FQHCs and LMHAS in Texas discussed aspects of their NMDOH programs\, their development steps\, unique challenges\, and successful solutions. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nIf you are interested in NMDOH platform and referral resources\, our experts suggest the following:  \n\n\n\nNMDoH-Platform-and-Referral-ResourcesDownload

SUMMARY:Applying Systems Thinking to NMDOH Impact Measurement
DESCRIPTION:While there is an increased focus on the importance of non-medical drivers of health (NMDOH)\, quantifying impact remains elusive.  Addressing challenges with measurement are foundational for expansion of NMDOH-based initiatives. This webinar explored current gaps with impact measurement and provided a systems thinking approach for what is needed for future success. \n\n\n\nPresenters walked through a series of case studies on NMDOH program evaluation\, considering the various options on what to measure\, how to operationalize an evaluation\, and what it means for an evaluation to be “good enough.” \n\n\n\nView the presenters slides from this event\, here.

SUMMARY:Food Is Medicine: Program Designs and Strategies in Texas
DESCRIPTION:Food Is Medicine (FIM) programs\, such as food prescriptions and medically tailored meals\, are rapidly gaining popularity within health care systems because of the strong link between nutrition and improved health outcomes. \n\n\n\nDuring this webinar\, presenters provided an overview of the variety of food-related programs with a deeper dive into some of the innovative FIM models being implemented across the state. The models represent different geographies\, populations\, and patient conditions\, modes of implementation\, and outcomes. \n\n\n\nView the presenters slides from this event\, here.
