Community Resource Information Exchange

Why CoRIE?

The Department of Health Care Finance (DHCF) has prioritized addressing social factors that influence health outcomes, like hunger and housing insecurity in DC. Managing social determinants of health (SDOH) depends on screening individuals to identify social risks, assisting them as appropriate, and tracking efforts that meet their needs. These activities are enhanced through standardizing data captured on screening and interventions to enable data sharing among organizations addressing individual needs and to optimize whole-person care.
