abstract: 'BackgroundFood insecurity (FI) often co-exists with other social risk
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factors, which makes addressing it particularly challenging. The degree
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of association between FI and other social risk factors across different
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
levels of income and before and during the COVID-19 pandemic is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
currently unknown, impeding the ability to design effective
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interventions for addressing these co-existing social risk
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factors.ObjectiveTo determine the association between FI and other
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
social risk factors overall and across different levels of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income-poverty ratios and before (2019) and during (2020-2021) the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pandemic.DesignWe used nationally representative data from the 2019-2021
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
National Health Interview Survey for our cross-sectional analysis.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Social risk factors available in NHIS included difficulties paying for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
medical bills, difficulties paying for medications, receiving income
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
assistance, receiving rental assistance, and ``not working last
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
week{''''}.Subjects93,047 adults (\& GE;18 years old).Key
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ResultsIndividuals with other social risk factors (except receiving
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income assistance) were more likely to report FI, even after adjusting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
for income and education inequalities. While poverty leads to a higher
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
prevalence of FI, associations between FI and other social risk factors
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were stronger among people with higher incomes, which may be related to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their ineligibility for social safety net programs. Associations were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
similar before and during the pandemic, perhaps due to the extensive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
provision of social safety net programs during the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pandemic.ConclusionsFuture research should explore how access to a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
variety of social safety net programs may impact the association between
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
social risk factors. With the expiration of most pandemic-related social
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
supports, further research and monitoring are also needed to examine FI
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the context of increasing food and housing costs. Our findings may
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
also have implications for the expansion of income-based program
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
eligibility criteria and screening for social risk factors across all
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
patients and not only low-income people.'
