Information for Health Homes, Care Coordination Organizations, & Care Management Agencies
Health Homes, Care Coordination Organizations, and Care Management Agencies play a key role in connecting members to HRSN services available through the SCN.
The New York State Department of Health encourages Health Homes, Care Coordination Organizations, and Care Management Agencies to partner with Social Care Networks (SCNs) to help members access Health-Related Social Needs (HRSN) services. As part of their partnership with SCN Lead Entities, Health Homes, Care Coordination Organizations, and Care Management Agencies can be reimbursed for time spent working with members to access services and can receive Capacity Building funding to support scale-up.

How can you join a Social Care Network?
To learn more about becoming a SCN partner, reach out to the SCN Lead Entity in your region. If you provide services in more than one region, you may collaborate and/or contract with multiple SCNs. SCN Lead Entities will also be able to share more detailed operational guidance as you get started, including specific processes for your region.
