3211 Place, Poverty, and Prevention: A Mixed Methods Study

Abstract

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Understand the association between ADI and completion of preventative cancer screening and high risk behaviors -Identify how to operationalize ADI in clinical settings to assist care teams and improve overall care delivery. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Aim 1: Paneled Mayo Clinic patients living in MN, IA, or WI Aim 2: BRFSS survey respondents from MN, IA, or WI Aim. 3: Community health officials and Mayo Clinic care teams. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We anticipate that areas with greater composite deprivation will have lower completion rates of cancer screening and higher risk behaviors. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: No single body of work has illustrated how ADI relates to completion of preventative cancer screening and high-risk behaviors. Due to the limited research focused on area deprivation and behavioral health, our work will identify some of the first national hot spots with high deprivation and high-risk behaviors. Additionally, this is one of the first studies describing spatial variation in health outcomes for Mayo Clinic patients. Understanding the association between ADI and patient adherence to preventative screening will allow us to support care teams in providing personalized and sustainable care for patients living in areas of high deprivation. The strength and novelty of this project is in the utility of the mixed methods design, which provides a more complete understanding of geographic disparities and a unique perspective to patient care, a perspective that is not portrayed in existing literature.
