Income, education, and hospitalization in Canada: results from linked census and administrative data
Authors: Godley, Jenny and Tang, Karen L.
Overview
Abstract (English)
Addressing population health inequities begins with quantifying how social factors affect the health and health care utilization of individuals. Such quantification relies on the availability of detailed health and demographic data. Unfortunately, administrative health care data rarely includes detailed demographic information. Data linkage, which combines administrative health data with national-level census or survey data, enables researchers to examine socio-economic inequalities in health care utilization in greater detail.
