Whole Person Care Hits Stride – Q&A with SNI

The California Improvement Network (CIN) sat down with Amanda Clarke, Associate Director of Programs at the California Health Care Safety Net Institute (SNI) to discuss the challenges, lessons, and opportunities of the state’s Whole Person Care (WPC) pilots.

The Q&A highlights how SNI is working with WPC sites to improve care for the state’s highest-needs patients by breaking data-sharin­g barriers, leveraging community health workers and peer navigators, and delivering care outside clinic walls.

This Q&A is part of their efforts to spread better ideas for care delivery, the network finds, documents and shares innovative quality improvement projects throughout the state.
