Social Drivers of Health (SDoH) and Preventable Hospitalization Rates
The first Social Drivers of Health (SDoH) dataset contains percentages of preventable hospitalizations (i.e., discharges) by Race/Ethnicity, preferred language spoken, expected payer, percent of employment, percent of home ownership, percent of park access and percent of access to basic kitchen facilities by the stated year. Preventable hospitalizations rates were created by dividing the number of patients who are 18 years and older and were admitted to a hospital for at least one of the preventable hospitalization diagnoses (see list below) by the total number of hospitalizations. List of preventable hospitalization diagnoses: diabetes with short-term complications, diabetes with long-term complications, uncontrolled diabetes without complications, diabetes with lower-extremity amputation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, hypertension, heart failure, angina without a cardiac procedure, dehydration, bacterial pneumonia, or urinary tract infection were counted as a preventable hospitalization. These conditions correspond with the conditions used in the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality’s (AHRQ), Prevention Quality Indicator - Overall Composite Measure (PQI #90). The SDoH "overtime" dataset contains percentages of preventable hospitalizations (i.e., discharges) by Race/Ethnicity, preferred language spoken and expected payer overtime in the stated year range.
