Seven hundred hotels have been vetted across the country, providing access to over 103,000 hotel rooms in urban, as well as suburban and rural locations.

About Trestle Health and Housing
Studies show that a person's zip code is a better predictor of health than their genetic code. This is especially true in underserved communities who experience profound health disparities. The result is an increase in Population Health Management (PHM) demand, poor health outcomes, and unsustainable publicly funded Medicaid and Medicare program costs.
Population health challenges in underserved communities are opportunities for more holistic communal models of care that accelerate social innovation in this historically neglected market. Trestle partners with health, housing, and community stakeholders to deliver integrated multi-sector solutions that reduce unnecessary health system demand while improving outcomes and resident well-being.
