PHOENIX, AZ, UNITED STATES, September 24, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Adobe Population Health, a comprehensive care management service provider, today released a study reviewing data on a Medicare member population across a state-wide catchment area in the Southwestern US. The study involved a statistically significant sample size of targeted interventions impacting 2,355 members.
The analysis includes a year of care management without SDoH intervention and another full year where SDoH were addressed to determine if a significant impact could be identified in a population of 2,355 members. The primary determinants addressed among this population were financial, transportation and safety. Although the topic of SDoH have been broadly discussed as beneficial, data across a broad population of Medicare members has been difficult to obtain. The Adobe Study presents significant impact. In terms of total cost, SDoH interventions reduced average cost of care by 31%. Inpatient visits were reduced on average by 22%. Most significantly, care gaps around chronic conditions like heart disease and diabetes were positively affected, with blood pressure compliance improving by 95% and diabetes screenings increasing by 47%.
