abstract: 'Purpose: Public health leaders have advocated for clinical and
|
|
|
|
population-based interventions to address the social determinants of
|
|
|
|
health (SDoH). The American Academy of Family Physicians has worked to
|
|
|
|
support family physicians with addressing the SDoH. However, the extent
|
|
|
|
that family physicians are engaged and the factors that influence this
|
|
|
|
are unknown. Methods: A survey was used to identify actions family
|
|
|
|
physicians had taken to address the SDoH and perceived barriers.
|
|
|
|
Physician and community characteristics were linked. Ordinal logistic
|
|
|
|
regression was used to identify factors associated with engagement in
|
|
|
|
clinical and population-based actions, separately. Results: There were
|
|
|
|
434 (8.7\%) responses. Among respondents, 81.1\% were engaged in at
|
|
|
|
least one clinical action, and 43.3\% were engaged in at least one
|
|
|
|
population-based action. Time (80.0\%) and staffing (64.5\%) were the
|
|
|
|
most common barriers. Physician experience was associated with higher
|
|
|
|
levels of clinical engagement, lower median household income was
|
|
|
|
associated with higher levels of population-based engagement, and
|
|
|
|
working for a federally qualified health center (FQHC) was associated
|
|
|
|
with both. Conclusions: The study provides preliminary information
|
|
|
|
suggesting that family physicians are engaged in addressing the SDoH
|
|
|
|
through clinical and population-based actions. Newer family physicians
|
|
|
|
and those working in FQHCs may be good targets for piloting clinical
|
|
|
|
actions to address SDoH and family physician advocates may be more
|
|
|
|
likely to come from an FQHC or in a lower socioeconomic neighborhood.
|
|
|
|
The study also raises questions about the value family physicians
|
|
|
|
serving disadvantaged communities place on clinical interventions to
|
|
|
|
address the SDoH.'
