Association of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundations' social determinants of health and Medicare ocular hospitalizations: a cross sectional data analysis.
The purpose of this paper was to determine whether social determinants of health are associated with ocular hospitalizations. Results showed that, compared to an all-condition hospitalized population, ocular hospitalizations tended to have small, yet statistically significant, associations with health behaviors, socioeconomic, and physical environment factors. Further research is recommended on how these variables affect ocular health relative to all-cause hospitalizations.
