Addressing Global Health Inequities: Improving Data for Social Determinants of Health
April 16 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
SPEAKER: Michelle Badore
SYNOPSIS:
According to the World Health Organization, a staggering 30-55% of health outcomes are attributed to SDoH. Contributing to this crisis are broken documentation practices, under-coding, and disparate classification systems across regions that are trying to support those in need. Analysing and improving these factors may not only allow for patient‐centered care that meets an individual’s social needs but may also inform population‐wide approaches to address social needs and reduce the burden of disparities within our patient population. We will differentiate how 12 countries on various continents and with varied complexity of healthcare environments describe the components of health inequities with some historical issues leading to the current landscape, capture the socio-economic issues in documentation, code using different patient classification systems, guidelines, and regulations, and how the data flows downstream to other systems for reporting systems such as patient quality measures and regulatory bodies.
