During episode 52 and this expert Coronavirus update, we spent time with a nationally-recognized community health worker turned entrepreneur to discuss the impact on social determinants of health during the pandemic.

Manik Bhat is the Chief Strategy Officer of Healthify, a New York-based startup that provides leading solutions to address the social determinants of health at scale.

By building infrastructure to formalize relationships between healthcare and community-based organizations, Healthify brings its partners one step closer to closing the health equity gaps in their communities.

While together, Manik shared how Healthify is addressing COVID-19 both with its technology as well as its community partnerships and the early successes his ecosystem is experiencing.

I’m grateful for Manik’s continued devotion and advocacy for addressing the social determinants of health through equitable and collaborative partnerships between healthcare and social service organizations.
