The top of the image shows the NHATS and NSOC logos surrounded by green and purple images of older adults. There is a navy blue banner underneath this that says "New Research Using NHATS/NSOC." In the center of the image is the title of a research paper, "Differences in the Measurement of Comorbidities Based on ICD-10-CM Coding Definitions Using Medicare Advantage Encounter Data and Fee-For-Service Claims." Under this the authors are listed, Emilie D. Duchesneau, Allison Musty, Elyse Miller, Anna Kuzma, Bailey Reutinger, Til Stürmer, Amresh Hanchate, Dae Hyun Kim, Michael Webster-Clark, Meng-Yun Lin, and Jennifer L. Lund.
New research using #NHATS / #NSOC by Duchesneau, et. al:
“MA #beneficiaries had a higher prevalence of...renal #disease. These findings align with prior studies using alternative data sources and may partially reflect racial #disparities in disease burden among #Black individuals…”
"Ultimately, this is the promise of reversing #innovation through #technology: to close #disparities while unlocking solutions with the potential to improve care for all."

Great time attending #SREE2025 in Chicago. We presented new work on #ADHD, absenteeism and bullying, and #disparities in #disability identification. And ate a Chicago dog.
Thanks for convening a great program yesterday highlighting the Lung Cancer Consensus Statement -Trimar. The discussions touched on #policy, #disparities, #biomarkers, #access, the importance of state driven initiatives. In some instances, addressing lung health made adoption easier.
