(The Center Square) – Medical journals’ tripled engagement with non-health related factors such as environmental, economic, and social well-being over the past decade as well as the phrase’s broadening scope may allow harmful ideologies to influence healthcare overall, a new report from medical watchdog Do No Harm warns. 

Senior director of Do No Harm’s Center for Accountability in Medicine Ian Kingsbury told The Center Square that “the expansion of the social determinants of health framework is a serious cause for concern.”
