  "abstract": "Description Improving community health is vital to the missions of both Fairview Health Services and UnitedHealth Group. While there are differences in every community, our community initiatives are informed and powered by data analysis and community insights and participation.This analysis and insight revealed some of the biggest challenges affecting community members in St. Paul are food insecurity and associated health conditions, such as diabetes and hypertension, especially in communities experiencing poverty. There is a need for a financially sustainable and collaborative approach that incorporates the social drivers of health and leverages community assets while reducing partner fragmentation to drive better health.UnitedHealth Group, Fairview, The Good Acre, and The Food Group partnered on a model that convenes community stakeholders to co-create tailored interventions that improve health and social outcomes while ensuring sustainability through integration into the care delivery system.All partners contributed to the results and insights gathered through a measurement framework to represent the collective impact of all community partners.We’ll detail results and show how fostering diverse cross-sector partnerships is essential to driving innovative solutions for sustainable community-based care.",
