Social Determinants of Health in a Real-World Adult HIV Population: ICD-10-CM and Consumer Linked Data Identification
AMCP 2024 Poster:
Social Determinants of Health in a Real-World HIV Population
Presented at the AMCP 2024 conference, this poster highlights innovative research on the integration of social determinants of health (SDOH) with claims data to gain insights into real-world HIV populations, uncovering disparities and opportunities for targeted interventions.
Key Highlights:
- Objective: Link person-level SDOH measures with claims data to describe HIV-specific cohorts and support evidence-generation efforts, including value propositions and economic models.
- Innovative Findings:
- Patients living with HIV face the lowest economic stability among cohorts, despite higher-than-average incomes in some cases.
- A majority of patients were single and living in smaller households, with a significant proportion living below the U.S. median household income.
- ICD-10 Z-codes revealed patterns in high-risk behaviors, tobacco use, and lifestyle-related challenges.
- Actionable Insights:
- Composite SDOH measures provide deeper context for addressing health inequities.
- Results inform value-based models and interventions targeting unmet needs in HIV care.
This research emphasizes the importance of integrating SDOH data into real-world evidence to improve patient outcomes and health equity.
