Learnings from Linking Closed Claims Patient Cohorts with Consumer SDOH Data

Exploring Social Determinants of Health in Real-World Disease Cohorts

Discover groundbreaking insights from the award-winning research presented at ISPOR 2024, analyzing the integration of Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) data with closed claims (CC) disease cohorts.

Key Findings:

  • Diverse Disease Cohorts Analyzed: Includes HIV, Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), Heart Failure (HF), Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM), and Metastatic Prostate Cancer (mPCA).
  • SDOH Insights:
    • HIV patients demonstrated the greatest racial diversity and highest economic instability despite higher incomes.
    • CKD and T2DM patients were most likely to have children, while HF and mPCA patients were typically aged 65+ and living alone.
  • Economic Realities: Over 75% of patients across all cohorts lived in households earning below the U.S. median income, with many facing significant economic instability.

Why It Matters:
This research highlights the value of linking SDOH data with claims to address health inequities, enhance real-world evidence, and support patient-centered care strategies.
