However, little is known about the quality of social determinants of health data sourced from real-world data sources such as the electronic health record. The overall objective of this work is to improve the quality of the social determinants of health data used in health equity research. Better data quality will increase the reliability and validity of the resulting research product - a necessary step towards understanding how to improve the health of both individuals and the population.}, number = {ETD}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.6083/jq085k66k}, recid = {9752}, address = {2022}, }
