Trillium Health Wins Awards for Addressing Social Risk Factors and Advancing Health Information Technology

Nov 27, 2023

November 27, 2023 (Rochester, NY) – Trillium Health is proud to announce that it has won two quality awards from the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA), a subagency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. These awards recognize Trillium Health's outstanding achievements in addressing social risk factors and advancing health information technology.

Addressing Social Risk Factors:

Trillium Health screens patients for their social risk factors using a Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) screening tool. The percentage of patients who received care management and supportive services increased between 2021 and 2022.

Advancing Health Information Technology (HIT)

Trillium Health uses a system for Electronic Health Records (EHR), offers telehealth services, exchanges health information electronically, engages patients through a patient portal, and collects data on social risk factors.

“We are so proud to win these awards,” said Jason Barnecut-Kearns, President and CEO of Trillium Health. “Trillium Health has always taken a comprehensive approach to health care – we ask everyone who walks through our doors whether they need help with food, housing, and transportation – in addition to medical care. Additionally, Trillium Health has invested in the latest health information technology, which enables us to conduct visits via telemedicine and share health information securely between the major health systems and our community partners. We’re thrilled to be recognized as a leader among community health centers nationwide.”

The awards were distributed through HRSA’s Community Health Quality Recognition Overview, which is based on data from the latest Uniform Data System (UDS) reporting period.
