“Engaging stakeholders in integrating social determinants of health into electronic health records: a scoping review”
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Social, environmental, and behavioural factors impact human health. Integrating these social determinants of health (SDOH) into electronic health records (EHR) may improve individual and population health. But how these data are collectedand their use in clinical settings remain unclear. We reviewed efforts to integrate SDOH into EHR in the U.S. and Canada, especially how this implementation serves Indigenous peoples. We followed an established scoping review process, performing iterative keyword searches in subject-appropriate databases, reviewing identified works' bibliographies, and soliciting recommendations from subject-matter experts. We reviewed 20 articles from an initial set of 2,459. Most discussed multiple SDOH indicator standards, with the National Academy of Medicine's (NAM) the most frequently cited (n = 10). Common SDOH domains were demographics, economics, education, environment, housing, psychosocial factors, and health behaviours. Twelve articles discussed project acceptability and feasibility; eight mentioned stakeholder engagement (none specifically discussed engaging ethnic or social minorities); and six adapted SDOH measures to local cultures . Linking SDOH data to EHR as related to Indigenous communities warrants further exploration, especially how to best align cultural strengths and community expectations with clinical priorities. Integrating SDOH data into EHR appears feasible and acceptable may improve patient care, patient-provider relationships, and health outcomes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
