Azar Previews HHS Plans to Address Social Determinants of Health

Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar recently previewed the agency’s plans to better address social determinants of health. “We believe we could spend less money on healthcare – and most important, help Americans live healthier lives – if we did a better job of aligning federal health investments with our investments in non-health care needs,” Azar said at a Hatch Foundation for Civility and Solutions event in Washington.
