Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's (AHRQ) database on Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) was created under a project funded by the Patient Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR) Trust Fund. The purpose of this project is to create easy to use, easily linkable SDOH-focused data to use in PCOR research, inform approaches to address emerging health issues, and ultimately contribute to improved health outcomes. https://www.ahrq.gov/sdoh/data-analytics/sdoh-data.html
