Neighborhood-level socioeconomic status and prescription fill patterns among patients with heart failure
JAMA Network Open
About The Study: In this study of 6,247 patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, patients living in neighborhoods with lower neighborhood-level socioeconomic status had significantly higher odds of nonadherence to guideline-directed medical therapy. These findings highlight the importance of considering neighborhood-level disparities when developing approaches to improve medication adherence.
