Improving Medicaid Outcomes with Digital Equity and Nutrition Support

Medicaid providers face growing expectations to address access to healthy foods, access to the internet, and resources for digital literacy as core non-medical drivers of poor health. This session explores a real-world model for integrating screening, care coordination and community partnerships into clinical workflows to improve health equity. Attendees will learn how a network of federally qualified healthcare centers implemented structured digital access and nutrition screening, captured more than 21,000 digital responses and used data to inform targeted interventions. Findings show how gaps in connectivity, device access and food security impact care engagement—and how leveraging community healthcare workers and digital navigators can bridge these divides. The session will offer scalable strategies for embedding whole-person care practices into value-based models, supporting better outcomes for underserved populations.
