AHRQ Data Underscore Uneven Impact of COVID-19 Insights gained from recent AHRQ data analyses about trends in COVID-19-related hospitalizations and hospital deaths is the subject of a new blog post coauthored by AHRQ Senior Research Scientist Pamela Owens, Ph.D., and Acting Director David Meyers, M.D. Statistical Briefs from AHRQ's Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project underscore the uneven impacts of the pandemic among minorities and rural populations. When combined with additional information related to COVID-19, socioeconomic factors and healthcare services in communities, these data can help evaluate the Nation's capacity to respond to public health emergencies, identify communities with the most urgent needs, and understand how crises impact the structure and financing of the supply side of the healthcare delivery system. |
