Healthy San Francisco - Management Plan and System Capacity
December 2007
San Francisco Department of Public Health
The Lewin Group recently performed strategic planning for San Francisco's Department of Public Health and Office of the Controller in preparation for implementation of the City's Healthy San Francisco initiative, a program to insure all San Francisco adult uninsured. Key areas of The Lewin Group’s work performed for the City were: projecting demand for health services under Healthy San Francisco, analyzing the Department of Public Health’s capacity to take new patients and meet the service demands, modeling the impact of changes in fees for the safety-net population, and analyzing a ‘one-stop’ web-based eligibility and enrollment system called One-e-App, which is used by other California counties for health and welfare client program management. The Lewin Group’s analyses and recommendations were also presented at the San Francisco Health Commission.
