Food is increasingly being recognized as essential to preventing, managing, and treating chronic diseases. Approximately half of all US adults have at least one preventable diet-related condition, accounting for 85 percent of health-care spending. Leaders across the health, food retail, and health-care industries are mobilizing effective ways to use food to engage individuals in other health-care services that can improve health outcomes. This session will highlight innovative strategies that leverage food in the health-care journey, from emerging opportunities for Food is Medicine care in Medicare and Medicaid, to identifying the role of employers in championing food as health for their employees, to using food as a touchpoint to address health disparities and social determinants of health more broadly.
