abstract: 'Background: Previous studies have shown that persons with severe
|
||||
|
||||
psychiatric disorders are more likely to be poor and face disparities in
|
||||
|
||||
education and employment outcomes. Poverty rates, the standard measure
|
||||
|
||||
of poverty, give no information on how far below the poverty line this
|
||||
|
||||
group falls.
|
||||
|
||||
Aims of the Study: This paper compares the poverty rate, poverty depth
|
||||
|
||||
(distance from the poverty line) and poverty severity (inequality of
|
||||
|
||||
incomes below the poverty line) of households with and without a
|
||||
|
||||
working-age member with severe psychiatric disorder in the United States
|
||||
|
||||
using data from the 2007 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS).
|
||||
|
||||
Methods: First, we perform multivariate analysis of the association
|
||||
|
||||
between severe disorder and poverty depth using MEPS data. Second, we
|
||||
|
||||
calculate poverty rates, depth, and severity for the subgroup of
|
||||
|
||||
households having a member with disorder and compare to the subgroup of
|
||||
|
||||
households without such a member.
|
||||
|
||||
Results: In multivariate regressions, the presence of a household member
|
||||
|
||||
with severe psychiatric disorder predicts a 52-percentage point increase
|
||||
|
||||
in poverty depth and 3.10 times the odds of being poor. Poverty rate,
|
||||
|
||||
depth, and severity are significantly greater for households of persons
|
||||
|
||||
with disorder. Mean total incomes are lower for households of persons
|
||||
|
||||
with severe disorder compared to other households while mean health
|
||||
|
||||
expenditures are similar.
|
||||
|
||||
Discussion: Severe psychiatric disorder is associated with greater depth
|
||||
|
||||
of poverty and likelihood of being poor. We identify groups who are the
|
||||
|
||||
most disadvantaged according to severity of income poverty among
|
||||
|
||||
households with severe psychiatric disorder. These include households
|
||||
|
||||
whose head has no high school education, who has been without work for
|
||||
|
||||
the entire year, and who is black or Hispanic. While these
|
||||
|
||||
characteristics are related to poverty for the overall sample, they
|
||||
|
||||
correlate to heightened poverty severity when combined with severe
|
||||
|
||||
disorder. Families face less severity than single persons but poverty
|
||||
|
||||
rate, depth, and severity increase for both groups when combined with
|
||||
|
||||
severe psychiatric disorder. Our study does not attempt to investigate
|
||||
|
||||
the causes of poverty, focusing rather on improved poverty measurement.
|
||||
|
||||
Implications for Health Care Provision and Use: We find that households
|
||||
|
||||
of persons with disorder have a lower standard of living and face more
|
||||
|
||||
severe forms of poverty. This may affect the health of their members
|
||||
|
||||
through reduced access to health inputs, including access to health
|
||||
|
||||
care.
|
||||
|
||||
Implications for Health Policies: This paper shows that there is a
|
||||
|
||||
strong association between severe psychiatric disorder and poverty, and
|
||||
|
||||
points to a need to break this association. Both mental health policy
|
||||
|
||||
and income assistance programs should consider using poverty rate, depth
|
||||
|
||||
and severity measures to evaluate the economic benefits of current
|
||||
|
||||
programs and target future programs to those facing the most severe
|
||||
|
||||
poverty.
|
||||
|
||||
Implications for Further Research: The results point to the need for
|
||||
|
||||
additional research in a number of areas: trends in poverty for
|
||||
|
||||
households with severe psychiatric disorders over time; mobility and
|
||||
|
||||
persistence of poverty for this group; and the association of severe
|
||||
|
||||
disorder to other, non-monetary dimensions of poverty, such as a lack of
|
||||
|
||||
social integration.'
