Navigate Wellbeing Solutions today announced the launch of a new social determinants of health (SDOH) assessment as part of its community support solution. This initiative advances its mission to promote health equity by helping employers, health systems, health plans, and PBMs address social factors such as food insecurity, unsafe living conditions, caregiving challenges, and other wellbeing barriers.

The SDOH assessment enables employees and members to confidentially identify challenges and quickly connect with relevant local support.

Navigate’s wellbeing platform includes access to the findhelp social care network at no additional cost to clients. This network connects individuals to more than 970,000 verified community programs across all 50 states. These programs offer food assistance, housing support, caregiving services, legal assistance, transportation resources, and more available by ZIP code.

Together, the SDOH screening and findhelp social care network provides employees and members with confidential, personalized recommendations in one place, simplifying access to trusted community support.

Health does not begin and end in a doctor’s office. The conditions people live in, such as access to food, safe housing, transportation, or caregiving support, play a powerful role in wellbeing. Our community support solution helps employers, payors, and PBMs address these real-world factors. It ensures people can connect to resources that support healthier lives.

Troy Vincent, Founder and CEO of Navigate Wellbeing Solutions

Beyond supporting employees and members, the social determinants of health screening offers aggregated reports for employers and partners, providing insight into unmet workforce needs. These insights help organizations understand the social and economic factors impacting their workforce.

We continually seek to strengthen support systems that influence health and wellbeing. Since partnering with findhelp in 2022, platform participants have conducted nearly 70,000 searches for community resources. This demand highlights the importance of connecting people not only to care but also to everyday support that helps them thrive. Our new solution expands how we integrate culture, care, and community support in one platform.”

Jenn Lowry, Vice President of Product Strategy, Navigate

Participants on the Navigate platform have:

Conducted nearly 70,000 searches for community support resources
Sought help for housing, food security, and health-related needs
The most frequently searched resources include food pantries, utility assistance, and housing support

Navigate’s new SDOH screening builds on the company’s broader approach to whole-person wellbeing, which connects culture, care, and clinical support for wellbeing within a single platform.

By combining community resource navigation, health coaching, and a personalized wellbeing platform, Navigate helps organizations address both the clinical and social factors that influence health.
