This is done through assessments and care planning during remote engagements and home visits, and the results of validated measurement tools such as :

• The Patient Activation Measure (PAM) for measuring a patient's ability to self-manage their chronic illness.
• The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) for identifying signs and symptoms of depression.
• The Accountable Health Communities (AHC) Health-Related Social Needs (HRSN) Screening Tool for measuring patient's community resource needs as they relate to core social determinants of health.
