Abstract

Social determinants of health play an important role in diagnosis, prevention, health outcomes, and quality of life. The objective of this study was to examine existing standards, vocabularies, and terminologies for items related to Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions and to synthesize them into model representations. Sources were identified through literature and keyword searches, and an examination of commonly used resources. Each source was systematically analyzed by two reviewers, mapped to topic area(s), and further mapped to a model representation. A total of 27 sources were identified and reviewed. Seven of the sources had no items, i.e. concepts, elements, or values, related to the three topic areas while SNOMED-CT had the most items at 436 followed by the US Census at 174. While none of the identified sources encompassed a complete representation for documenting the three topic areas, their synthesis together results overall in more comprehensive representations.

Introduction

Social and individual behavioral factors play an important role in diagnosis, prevention, health outcomes, and quality of life.1, 2 As defined by the World Health Organization, “social determinants of health are the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age”.3 Social determinants of health (SDOH) can cause illness, exacerbate chronic illness, but can also prevent disease and improve health. When considered broadly, SDOH includes behavioral components, such as alcohol, drug, and tobacco use; diet; and physical and environmental factors that may influence an individual’s health such as living conditions, social support, occupation and its associated exposures, and physical activities. These factors contribute to mortality as well as account for being a dominant causal mechanism for many types of disease.48

With respect to SDOH related to Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions, insecurity related to housing, for example, has been associated with poor health among children,9 barriers related to access to health care,10 and the need for chronic disease management.11 Living situation, residence, and physical living conditions all have been shown to have significant impact on a patient’s health outcomes.12, 13 Since SDOH have a significant impact on patient health as risk factors, they should be considered when assessing and prescribing interventions and can serve to influence provider recommendations. For example, if a patient requires a weekly treatment at a distant location, lives in a residential facility, and relies on public transportation, then a weekly treatment plan may not be realistic without additional support, and the patient could become non-compliant. Or, if the patient is homeless, then a treatment plan that requires the use of a refrigerated antibiotic is most likely not a feasible option.

While much work has been done to demonstrate the deleterious effect of behaviors such as alcohol and tobacco use on health outcomes,14 many other social determinants particularly around physical and environmental factors have not been investigated as thoroughly or linked as deliberately to health outcomes. Housing, for example, has been studied with respect to the impact of homelessness on various conditions and housing related exposures.1524 However, little work has been done around examining the health affects of housing density or with whom the patient lives.25 In a number of cases, the benefits of housing interventions including different types supportive housing have been demonstrated on physical and mental health.2632 Moreover, knowledge regarding the patient’s physical living space, who the patient lives with, and living conditions would be of benefit clinicians and other stakeholders in providing patient-centered and more appropriate care and services.33

Electronic health record (EHR) systems provide an unprecedented opportunity to collect and analyze patient data at the point of care and for improving our understanding of disease and healthcare outcomes with secondary use of this data. If leveraged fully, SDOH data may be collected at the point of care within these systems and then re-used. For instance, SDOH can be analyzed along with clinical data to more fully evaluate patient outcomes, generate evidence-based care guidelines, and identify patients who may benefit from special services or interventions or those who may be at higher risk for preventable events. Despite the opportunity of EHRs, standard terminologies and well-designed discrete data collection tools for social history have not been widely developed and incorporated to different EHR systems. In most cases, SDOH documentation may be entered as structured data or unstructured text (e.g., in clinical notes or free-text data collection fields). This leaves a large gap in the data that can be used to enhance patient care as well as facilitate population health research to further the study of SDOH impact to health. The development of standard representations for SDOH information and ultimately optimized data collection tools will ultimately facilitate analytics, clinical decision support, and re-use and interoperability of this information.

To start bridging this gap, work to define and harmonize SDOH standards for inclusion in the EHR has been done,34, 35 including recent National Academy of Medicine (NAM; formerly Institute of Medicine) reports recommending social and behavioral domains and measures for EHRs for inclusion in Stage 3 Meaningful Use requirements.35 Some work (Chen et al. and Melton et al.)36, 37 has also been done to model social history from clinical notes and public health surveys including residence and living situation. The goal of this study is to expand upon these previous model representations for Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions through synthesis of a collection of interface terminologies, standards/specifications, documentation guidelines, and measures/surveys, evaluate the coherence of documentation, and ultimately contribute to a preliminary model representation that will be used to inform design and development of data collection tools in the EHR for these topic areas.38

Methods

The topic areas of Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions examined in this study are defined and summarized from a literature search in Table 1. This study was performed in three phases: (1) identifying sources potentially containing references to at least one of the three topic areas; (2) analyzing each data source for specific items related to each topic area; and, (3) synthesizing items into comprehensive representations for each of the three target topic areas. For the purpose of this analysis, all references found were weighted equally whether they were a concept, survey question, element, or member of a value list and termed as “items”.

Table 1:

Definitions and sentence/statement examples for target SDOH topic areas.

Topic Area Definition Examples
RESIDENCE Describes dwelling types, physical residence, and geographic location. Include safety considerations such as railings or number of floors and steps. “Apartment building living”
“Living in mobile home”
“Lives in a nursing home”
LIVING SITUATION With whom does the patient live such as roommates, family members, multiresident dwelling as well as how many others they live with. “Lives alone”
“Total number of people living in the household.”
“Lives with family”
LIVING CONDITION Environmental cleanliness and precautions against infection and disease. Includes sanitation, safety, inadequate water, sewage disposal, heating or cooling, presence of mold, odors, insects, rodents. “Inadequate heating/cooling”
“Presence of lead-based paint”
“Cluttered living space”
“Presence of mold”
“Excessive pets”

Qualifying sources were identified via literature and Internet searches using search terms that included: “<EHR or EMR> documentation”, “social documentation <standards or terminology>“, “social worker documentation <standards or terminology>“, “physical therapy documentation <standards or terminology>“, “occupational therapy documentation <standards or terminology>“, “social determinants documentation”, “<EHR or EMR> residence”, “<EHR or EMR> living situation”, and “<EHR or EMR> living conditions”. Additional sources were suggested by subject matter experts, and professional organization websites for physical therapy, occupational therapy, and social work were examined and also searched using the above list of terms. A source was included in the final set if it contained references to or specific items related to one or more of the three topic areas of Residence, Living Situation, or Living Conditions.

Each of the identified sources were grouped into one of four categories: (1) Interface Terminology, (2) Standards/Specifications/Coding Terminology, Vocabulary, (3) Documentation Guideline, and (4) Measures/Surveys. These categories were partly based upon the sources own definition, as well as the type and function of the source, i.e. how it is used in health IT and patient care. Each individual source was examined to identify specific items related to each of the three broad topic areas of Residence, Living Situation, or Living Conditions. The source search was limited to assessment-related items and excluded interventional references. Those sources that were available electronically were searched systematically using the provided search tools, such as the IHTSDO SNOMED-CT browser39 or the standard search mechanisms provided by each source. Sources available in book or paper form were searched manually. The initial list of search terms used was derived from the literature search. The list was further iteratively refined as sources were examined. The final list of search terms used included: “home”, “house”, “housing”, “residence”, “live”, “living”, “lives”, “people”, “mold”, “insect”, “rodent”, “water”, “heat”, “social”, and “density”. All sources were reexamined and searched by two reviewers using this final complete list of search terms. Any discrepancies between the primary and secondary review were subsequently evaluated and the final list of items was amended accordingly to compile a final comprehensive list by consensus. In cases where a source contained items from another standard or terminology source, the duplicates were excluded from the data set in the final analysis.

Each item identified from within each source was then mapped to one of the three topic areas of Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions. Each item was then further analyzed and then mapped to specific element axes and values from a previously defined model resulting in an enhanced and more comprehensive model for Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions.37 Element axes and values were added to the previous model representation or expanded on to accommodate findings from this review.

Results

A total of 27 data sources were identified as potentially having applicable items for one or more of the three topic areas. Of the 27 sources, seven sources were excluded during the initial analysis due to lack of detail or specificity. Those included the Meaningful Use Stage 2 Requirements and the EHR Certification Requirements, which did not include specific items directly related to the target topic areas for this study. The Nursing Management Minimum Data Set also did not contain relevant items. The Centers for Medicare Social Work Documentation Guidelines (MSWDG) and the Medicare Rehabilitation Documentation Requirements (MRDR) did contain references to the target topics areas; however, these sources were very high level and did not provide sufficiently detailed information appropriate for this work. Lastly, the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) and Uniform Terminology for Occupational Therapy contained items related to interventions and patient activity and not assessments, therefore these two sources were excluded from the final analysis. Secondary review of the 27 sources confirmed these results.

The remaining 20 sources contained applicable items for one or more of the three topic areas. Nineteen of the 20 sources contained some references to Residence totaling 643 items not including the United State Board on Geographic Names, which in itself contained millions of items for national and international named geographic locations (Table 2). SNOMED-CT had the highest number of items related to Residence at 265, followed by the US Census at 160, and third was HL7 at 58 items. Fifteen of the 20 sources contained items related to Living Situation totaling 96 items, the highest being again SNOMED-CT with 62 items, followed by openEHR with 7 items, and the US Census with 6 items. Lastly, 11 of the 20 sources had references to Living Conditions totaling 197 items. The source with the most references to Living Conditions was once again SNOMED-CT with 109 items followed by the Health Indicators Warehouse with 24 items and lastly NANDA-I with 19 items.

Identified items were further manually evaluated and classified using the previously published model representations as a foundation (Table 3).37 Logical groupings of items were derived and individual items were mapped to an existing element axis or new elements axes were added to accommodate findings related specifically to the three topic areas. The most prevalent mapping was to Residence Detail with 13 sources containing items, and the second most prevalent was Residence Type, which was found in 12 of the 20 sources. Nine sources had items mapping to Living Situation Detail, 9 sources had items mapping to Living Conditions Detail, and 7 had items mapping to Living Condition Type. Of the 20 sources, PhenX Toolkit, openEHR and the US Census had the broadest coverage of elements and values.

Model representations were developed from the mappings. The model representation for Residence uniquely contains items to describe the physical dwelling type, such as “House”, “Apartment “, or “Group Home” as well as details about that physical dwelling including presence and number stairs, and other safety items such as railings. There are also items to collect data about age of the residence, residence build time point as well as geographic location. The model representation for Living Situation includes more detail around Subject since this topic area is related to whom the patient is living with as well as Living situation Detail. Lastly, the model representation for Living Conditions includes an entity to document Living Conditions Type, which refers to the type of hazard such as “mold”, “insects”, or “animals” as well as Living Conditions Detail, which includes details about the Living Conditions Type or more general information about Living Conditions such as “Control environmental pests” (Figure 1).

Discussion

While SDOH represent important considerations in the provision of patient care and are also becoming more important in population health management, a number of important gaps in their use continue to exist. Currently, SDOH are not consistently or well-documented in the EHR, particularly the three topic areas on which this work is focused: Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions. By working towards synthesis of existing sources to derive enhanced models, we are starting to bridge this gap. Ultimately, the enhanced model representations could be used to inform the design and development of associated EHR documentation tools. To that end, our focus was to err on comprehensiveness in collecting assessment items associated with these topic areas rather than provided or resulting outcomes of those interventions.

A preliminary search for data sources in the form of interface terminologies, standards, specifications, coding terminologies, vocabularies, documentation guidelines, measures, and surveys yielded 27 possible sources that potentially contained items related to the three topic areas. While some sources were eliminated, collating the remaining 20 was highly informative. While no single source was completely comprehensive for all three topic areas, there was overall coverage to support an enhanced model representation. The most broadly comprehensive source was SNOMED-CT, which contained the highest number of relevant items overall, as well as ranking first for the highest number of items for each of the three individual topic areas. The US Census survey ranked second for total items as well as second for Residence (Table 2).

Collectively, the final set of 20 sources were very diverse in specificity primarily because they had distinct but different purposes and uses. For example, OMAHA, NIC, NOC, NANDA-I, and CCC are intended to assist in nursing documentation whereas HL7 is a standard intended for broader data exchange and the US Census and the OASIS are intended to collect data for population surveillance. Lastly, the US Board on Geographic Names was an outlier as it contained millions of very specific items for named geographic locations including city, state, county, country, as well as landmarks and bodies of water. This source could be helpful in standardizing how we model and record geographic locations. As a result of this variability in use and purpose, some sources contained high level, broad concepts, while others contained very specific items and very lengthy, detailed value lists. This diversity presented a challenge in the harmonization phase of the project. For example, SNOMED-CT lists “Housing, local environment and transport finding” with a diverse value list that includes residence types such as “apartment” and “mobile home” as well as living conditions such as “Lives in damp conditions” and “Presence of lead-based paint” while HL7 listed a specific item “primaryResidenceSetting PrimaryResidence” that has an extensive value list associated with it that contained types of physical dwellings. In many cases the lack of specificity caused an item to be counted in more than one topic area. One example of this was found in the Open EHR source that had an item “Description of the home environment”. This could include a description of any of the three topic areas and was counted as such in the final analysis. Ultimately, due to the variability in specificity of the items the data sources, in the final analysis and harmonization, all references to the three topic areas were weighted equally as items whether they were high level broad concepts, questions, elements, or individual values within a value list. This allowed for equal comparison and categorization of the items into the model representation.

Analysis of the final 20 data sources demonstrated that the topic areas of Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions are being included in those sources with Residence being most prevalent, specifically Residence Detail (details about the physical structure of the dwelling including safety features) and Residence Type (type of physical dwelling such as house, apartment, group home, nursing home). References to Living Situation were not very detailed. Many of the sources included some indication of whom the patient was living with but the value lists were very nonspecific including values such as “family” or “partner/spouse”. Items related to Living Conditions were mostly related to water, sewage, electricity, and heat availability with some references to sanitation specifically insects or rodents. Present, but much less prevalent, were references related to subject other than patient, as were references to temporality, certainty, quantity, and negation, i.e. the absence of an item or condition. Despite these unique challenges, the analysis of these sources, generated 934 items that were ultimately mapped to model elements resulting in enhanced model representations for the three topic areas.

The contributions of this work represent a step towards further informing biomedical standards for the representation of social determinants of health, specifically Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions. Next steps will be to further enhance this model representation and ultimately inform the design of EHR data collection tools through the incorporation of EHR unstructured and semi-structured text classifications. One unexpected challenge this work was the complexity of the sources and the difficulty in categorizing them into logical groupings. In future work it may be of interest to examine and develop standard definitions for these types of sources.

Conclusions

While this is a compilation and harmonization of a unique and diverse set of sources, overall, the diversity of the data sources contributed to a broader more detailed model than in previous work. Our results demonstrate that there are many sources that are currently being used to inform data collection with regards to Residence, Living Situation, and Living Conditions. While none of the sources were completely comprehensive, once harmonized they served to inform a more detailed model representation for the three topic areas that can be used towards developing more comprehensive data collection tools in the EHR.
