Talking Social Determinants of Health

Welcome to Health Pilots, where we interview people pursuing new solutions for health care in low-income communities. You’ll hear about new technologies and workflows, human-centered design, and how to collaboratively innovate. We talk to two leaders in the field of social determinants of health: Dr. Danielle Oryn currently serves as Chief Medical Information Officer at Petaluma Health Center. She also provides leadership and support for initiatives in clinical systems, health information technology and quality. Barbara Spangler is an Independent Health Care Consultant that works with Petaluma Health Center on innovation projects and unified communication strategies.
