Social determinants of health are often at the core of health disparities among some of the most vulnerable populations. COVID-19 has caused additional hardship for individuals and communities already struggling to access basic necessities like food and shelter.

While working remotely, employees of 澳门六合彩资料库's Louisiana health plan quickly and persistently worked to help replenish medications and secure an apartment.
In the video below, learn how Louisiana Healthcare Connections ensured the family received crucial resources to help protect their health and safety after the devastating loss.
