abstract: 'In the United States (US) and elsewhere, residents of low resource areas
|
|
|
|
face health-related disparities, and may experience different outcomes
|
|
|
|
throughout times of severe economic flux. We aimed to identify
|
|
|
|
individual (e.g. sociodemographic) and environmental (e.g. region,
|
|
|
|
rurality) factors associated with self reported health and forgone
|
|
|
|
medical care due to the cost of treatment in the US across the Great
|
|
|
|
Recession (2008-2009).
|
|
|
|
We analyzed nationally representative data (2004-2010) using the
|
|
|
|
Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System in the US. Individual and
|
|
|
|
geospatial factors (rurality, census region) were used to identify
|
|
|
|
differences in self-reported health and forgone medical care due to the
|
|
|
|
cost.
|
|
|
|
Adjusted-analyses taking into account individual and geospatial factors
|
|
|
|
among those with incomes <\$50,000 identified multiple differences
|
|
|
|
across time, sex, education, disability, rurality and Census Region for
|
|
|
|
health. Similar analyses for forgone medical care found that those in
|
|
|
|
the Recovery and the Recession were more likely to report forgone care
|
|
|
|
than before the Recession. Having insurance and/or being employed
|
|
|
|
(versus unemployed) was a protective factor in terms of reporting
|
|
|
|
fair/poor health and having to forgo health care due to cost.
|
|
|
|
Policies affecting improvements in health and access for vulnerable
|
|
|
|
populations (e.g., low-income minority adults) are critical. Monitoring
|
|
|
|
trends related to Social Determinants of Health, including the
|
|
|
|
relationship between health and place (e.g. Census region, rurality), is
|
|
|
|
necessary in efforts targeted towards ameliorating disparities. (C) 2017
