AUTHOR National Academies of Sciences Engineering and Medicine; Health and Medicine Division; Transportation Research Board
PUBLISHER National Academies Press (03/26/2017)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description

Evidence from the public health sector demonstrates that health care is only one of the determinants of health, which also include genes, behavior, social factors, and the built environment. These contextual elements are key to understanding why health care organizations are motivated to focus beyond their walls and to consider and respond in unprecedented ways to the social needs of patients, including transportation needs. In June 2016 the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine held a joint workshop to explore partnerships, data, and measurement at the intersection of the health care and transportation sectors. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
