Social Needs of MA Enrollees

Little is known about the health-related social needs (HRSNs) of those
who are Medicare Advantage (MA) enrollees, especially those who are
dually eligible for Medicaid and Medicare and those younger than
sixty-five.

Deborah Peikes and her team of colleagues address this gap by exploring
the HSRNs of those enrolled in a large national MA plan
<[link removed]>.

After evaluating survey results, they find that dual-eligible
beneficiaries in the survey sample had a higher prevalence of each HRSNs
than non-dual-eligible beneficiaries. Also, "among dual-eligible
beneficiaries, the most common HRSN profiles were financial strain and
food insecurity."

Peikes and colleagues also determine that HRSNs varied according to
respondent characteristics, but less so among dual-eligible
beneficiaries.
