Healthcare decisions are based on 63 minutes of clinical data each year. But the other 525,000 minutes of someone’s life shape outcomes just as much. Trenor Williams shares why social risk insights are essential to delivering effective care.

So why does healthcare keep doing the same things with the same old datasets? There’s a better way—one that improves patient outcomes and strengthens financial performance. Social risk factors are measurable, addressable, and essential for breaking the cycle. #SDOH

We've built programs for diabetes, hypertension, heart disease… But if look at the big picture, something’s not working. Despite all that investment, as a country, we’re getting less healthy. More ER visits. More hospitalizations. More readmissions.

It’s hard to put a cost on what you don’t know. But ignoring social risk carries a steep one. We know that 50–80% of health outcomes are shaped by social factors. Yet in healthcare, we spend most of our time treating the symptoms of specific diseases.

The future of healthcare depends on how well we connect these clinical and non-clinical worlds, so we see the whole person, not just their disease.

And the data universe is only expanding: Wearables Climate trends Environmental factors Just think about Arizona’s 21 straight days of 105°+ heat and what that means for managing chronic illness.

Managing chronic disease is hard enough. But it becomes even harder if someone can’t get to the doctor’s office in the first place.
