28 Trends that Impact the Future of the CHW Field Move from volume-oriented payment to pay for performance/outcomes and total cost of care Workforce needs related to expanded coverage and primary care shortages Demographic shifts with aging baby boomers and growth in populations of color New care delivery and financing models such as health care homes and accountable care organizations Focus on team-based, patient-centered care with everyone working at the top of their license
29 Trends, cont. Greater recognition of social, environmental and economic determinants of health and use of tools such as community assessments and HIA Need for proven, integrated, lower cost models Increased accountability for reporting and outcomes, leading to wider adoption of best practices to address health disparities Growing body of outcome-based studies that point to effectiveness of CHW strategies to reduce health disparities and improve cultural competence
30 Conclusion CHW strategies are an integral part of the response to the challenges facing our nation s health. State and local public health agencies can play a vital leadership role in fostering the integration of CHW services in public health systems. They can also serve as a catalyst and partner for the successful adoption of CHW strategies within the health care system.
