Sinopsis

Brad Chapman, Head of Internal Operations and West Ecosystems for U.S. Neurology at UCB, Inc., and Professor Swapna Reddy, Clinical Assistant Professor at Arizona State University’sSchool for the Science of Health Care Delivery, College of HealthSolutions discuss a recent research project looking into how social determinants of Health (SDH) affect the epilepsy community. The project is dedicated to analyzing and evaluating the potential correlation between SDH and epilepsy treatment gaps and health outcomes at a community level and how patients can be better supported in managing their disease. To date, there has been a remarkable absence in research and information on how factors other than the quality of healthcare received can influence outcomes for epilepsy patients.
