Sachin H. Jain: SCAN’s medical group focuses its clinical services on unhoused people in California

Sachin H. Jain shared a post on LinkedIn about recent paper by Angela Hart et al., commenting:

“It’s humbling to share this Kaiser Family Foundation profile of the work of Healthcare in Action, SCAN’s medical group that focuses its clinical services on unhoused people in California.

In a short time, the group has helped house hundreds of people and has provided clinical and social services to thousands. The dedication and passion of the staff is palpable—and integral to the group’s success.

We’ve been fortunate to partner with other major payers, provider organizations, and municipalities to build this important service offering for society’s most vulnerable.

Read the story to learn more and we look forward to partnering with others to help solve one of society’s most vexing and embarrassing problems.”
