Decades of research have demonstrated that diabetes affects racial and ethnic minor- ity and low-income adult populations in the U.S. disproportionately, with relatively intractable patterns seen in these populations’ higher risk of diabetes and rates of diabetes complications and mortality (1). With a health care shift toward greater emphasis on population health outcomes and value-based care, social determinants of health (SDOH) have risen to the forefront as essential intervention targets to achieve health equity (2–4). Most recently, the COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted unequal vulnerabilities borne by racial and ethnic minority groups and by disadvantaged communities. In the wake of concurrent pandemic and racial injustice events in the U.S., the American College of Physicians, American Academy of Pediatrics, Society of General Internal Medicine, National Academy of Medicine, and other professional organizations have published statements on SDOH (5–8), and calls to action focus on amelioration of these determinants at individual, organizational, and policy levels (9–11). In diabetes, understanding and mitigating the impact of SDOH are priorities due to disease prevalence, economic costs, and disproportionate population burden (12–14). In 2013, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) published a scientific statement on socioecological determinants of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes (15). Toward the goal of understanding and advancing opportunities for improvement among the population with diabetes through addressing SDOH, ADA convened the current SDOH and diabetes 1Department of Medicine, Johns Hopkins Univer- writing committee, prepandemic, to review the literature on 1) associations of SDOH sity, Baltimore, MD 2 with diabetes risk and outcomes and 2) impact of interventions targeting amelioration Welch Center for Prevention, Epidemiology and of SDOH on diabetes outcomes.

Table 1—Definitions Term Definition Health disparities A particular type of health difference that is closely linked with social, economic, and/or environmental disadvantage. Health disparities adversely affect groups of people who have systematically experienced greater obstacles to healthbased on their racial or ethnic group;religion; socioeconomic status; sex; age; mental health; cognitive, sensory, or physical disability; sexual orientation or gender identity;geographiclocation; orothercharacteristicshistoricallylinked todiscrimination or exclusion (16). Health equity Equity is the absence of avoidable, unfair, or remediable differences among groups of people, whether those groups are defined socially, economically, demographically, or geographically or by other means of stratification. “Health equity” or “equity in health” implies that ideally everyone should have a fair opportunity to attain their full health potential and that no one should be disadvantaged from achieving this potential (24). Health equity is attainment of the highest level of health for all people. Achieving health equity requires valuing everyone equally with focused and ongoing societal efforts to address avoidable inequalities, historical and contemporary injustices, and the elimination of health and health care disparities (23). Social determinants of health (SDOH) The social determinants of health are the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age. These circumstances are shaped by the distribution of money, power, and resources at global, national, and local levels. The social determinants of health are mostly responsible for health inequitiesdthe unfair and avoidable differences in health status seen within and between countries (26).

Table 3—Continued Committee Recommended actions Description Develop a digital infrastructure that is interoperable Establish ACA-recommended digital infrastructure for social care. The Office of the National between health care and social care organizations Coordinator should support identification of interoperable, secure, platforms for use across health and social care communities. The Federal Health Information Technology Coordinating Committee should facilitate data sharing across domains (e.g., health care, housing, and education). Analytic and technology implementation must have an explicit focus on equity to avoid unintended consequences such as perpetuation or aggravation of discrimination, bias, and marginalization. Finance the integration of health care and social care CMS should define and use flexibility in what social care constitutes Medicaid-covered services. Health systems, payers, and governments should consider collective financing to spread risk and create shared returns on investments in social care. Health systems subject to community benefit regulations should comply with those regulations and should align their hospital licensing requirements and public reporting with community benefits regulations and should link their community benefits providing social care. Fund, conduct, and translate research and evaluation on Federal (e.g., NIH, AHRQ, PCORI) and state agencies, payers, providers, delivery systems, and the effectiveness and implementation of social care foundations should contribute to advancing research and evaluation of social care through practices in health care settings funding opportunities, researcher support (i.e., cultivate health services, social sciences, and cross-disciplinary researchers), and use of experimental trials, rapid learning cycles, and dissemination of learnings. CMS should fully finance independent state waiver evaluations to ensure robust evaluation of social care and health care integration pilot programs and dissemination.

Table 5—SDOH and diabetes research recommendations Research recommendation 1 ConsensusisneededaroundlanguageandmetricsassociatedwithSDOHand Establish consensus core SDOH definitions and metrics diabetes care that move beyond health care and capture the impact of social advantage and disadvantage in population settings. Clarity and consistency in measurement, evaluation, and reporting of progress will allow for appropriate planning of interventions, allocation of resources, and analysis of impact in achieving equity goals. Research recommendation 2 Examinations of potential differences in pathways or impacts of SDOH based Examine specificities in SDOH pathways and impacts among on characteristics including diabetes type or diagnostic category (e.g., different populations with diabetes T1DM vs. T2DM, gestational diabetes mellitus, prediabetes), age group (e.g., children and youth, adults, older adults), and different SES (wealthy vs. middle class vs. poor) are needed. In addition, complexities of SDOH pathways and impacts for different racial/ethnic groups, based on historical drivers and policies, warrant elucidation to inform intervention and mitigation strategies. Research recommendation 3 Multisector partnerships, comprising academic institutions, government Prioritize a next generation of research that targets SDOH as sectors (e.g., housing, education, justice), and public health entities are the root cause of diabetes inequities requiredin ordertodesignandtestobservationalandinterventionstudies to better understand and intervene on SDOH as root causes of diabetes disparities. Priorities need to move from compensatory to the next- generation of research that will be larger in scope, addressing foundational causes of disparities (e.g., policy, systems change), and tested over time across sectors. Complex studies, examining the interactive effects of multifaceted systems that influence SDOH, will also transform andmove translational efforts toward large-scale solutionsthat promote equity for all populations and mitigate the influence of SDOH on diabetes outcomes. Research recommendation 4 For clinical research programs, dissemination and implementation methods Use dissemination and implementation science to ensure SDOH will shorten the translation gap from discovery to impact of evidence- considerations are embedded within diabetes research and based interventions by addressing the complexity of integrating and evaluation studies adapting evidence-based practices to real-world community and clinical settings. This will assure all populations benefit from the billions of U.S. tax dollars spent on research to prevent diabetes and to improve diabetes population health. Research studies must also consider the potential influence of either positive or negative SDOH (e.g., wealth or economic security vs. poverty, food security vs. insecurity, stable vs. unstable housing) on intervention appropriateness and outcomes, on study recruitment and participation, and on study outcomes and conclusions. Research recommendation 5 Training on SDOH and their influence on diabetes prevention and treatment Train researchers in methodologies and experimental techniques is needed. Training priorities include interdisciplinary science, multisector for multisector and next generation SDOH intervention studies collaboration research approaches, and methods to advance root cause research on SDOH. Additionally, increasing diversity among research workforces, and fostering educational experiences encompassing multisector partners will develop a workforce that is congruent with promoting diabetes health equity.
