Addressing drivers of health: An introduction to Let’s Take 5

In spring 2023, The Physicians Foundation launched its new campaign, Let’s Take 5 to Address Drivers of Health (DOH). Foundation President Gary Price, MD, MBA, discusses the movement and why physicians must assist patients with drivers of health if they want successful outcomes. Physicians overwhelmingly recognize health care must address drivers of health, also known as social drivers or social determinants of health, which are social and economic factors outside traditional clinical care.
