Advancing SDoH Health IT Enabled Tools and Data Interoperability: eCDS and Data Tagging Project Overview

According to the World Health Organization, social determinants of health (SDoH) are the conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age, and the broader set of forces and systems shaping the conditions of daily life. The health care industry increasingly recognizes the importance and impact of these conditions on individual and community health and care.
Two important existing and emerging tools for advancing the use of SDoH data in clinical and community settings are data tagging and electronic clinical decision support (eCDS). Data tagging can help enable the movement of sensitive SDoH data. eCDS can enable the integration of SDoH decision-making data into clinical workflows, as supported by specialty practice guidelines, making it more likely that SDoH information will be utilized as a part of care delivery.
This ONC-led project aims to advance the interoperability of SDoH data by supporting stakeholder efforts to conduct data tagging and by assessing the feasibility of developing eCDS that incorporates SDoH data.
Project objectives include:
Data Tagging
  • Supporting and informing the successful implementation of data tagging for SDoH use cases and collaborative learning and dissemination among interested stakeholders in data tagging for SDoH
  • Identifying lessons learned and challenges to help inform future implementation and considerations
Clinical Decision Support
  • Informing a foundation and feasible approach to develop eCDS (and possibly CDS Hooks) to incorporate SDoH into direct clinical care delivery according to practice guidelines
  • Describing and synthesizing the findings of SDoH as incorporated in specialty practice guidelines to inform future approaches creating health IT enabled decision support tools with SDoH in the future
