A project of ADvancing States and NCIL, this report shares information on a range of issues – including services and referrals, technology and social media, partnerships and systems, quality assurance, training and certification, and sustainability – from the perspectives of I&R/A professionals in state agencies on aging and disability, Area Agencies on Aging, Centers for Independent Living, Aging and Disability Resource Centers, No Wrong Door systems, and other non-profit human service organizations.

Demonstrating value through the quality of your AAA or CBO services can be an effective way to build and expand new business relationships. This presentation, part of n4a’s 2017 annual conference, focuses on the types of measures you can easily report on, and also how you can provide upstream benefits by impacting the measures that health plans must report on and be evaluated by.

In order to better address health-related social needs, communities across the country have been experimenting with programs to connect health care providers with community-based organizations (CBOs) that address social needs, such as housing, food insecurity, and assistance with utilities and transportation.This brief from the Commonwealth Fund surveys the landscape of these programs, highlights common challenges, and proposes solutions.

This tool from n4a is intended to help a CBO leader refine key talking points on one of their organization’s priority products and services in preparation for discussions with a potential business partner. This tool will help lead to the development of a value-based, to-the-point “elevator speech” for use in discussions with potential business partners.

In this presentation, the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), shared insights from its research on person-centered goals for people with complex care needs and tools for CBOs to become more effective partners with health plans, including how to effectively measure quality improvement and implement quality improvement initiatives.

This whitepaper discusses how interdependency between companies is increasingly important in order to provide the complete solutions customers demand.

This toolkit provides guidance for creating a partnership among different organizations to address a common goal.
