Social determinants of health have become a large topic of conversation in the healthcare industry. Kevin Stevenson, executive vice president of IntegraNet Health, joined MarketScale to explain this trend and why it means physicians are taking a more proactive approach to medicine rather than being reactive.

“[Social determinants of health] is defined by the World Health Organization as the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age,” Stevenson said.
