Objectives:   To evaluate the prevalence of social determinants of health (SDoH) factors in a large commercially-insured population and to characterize the prevalence of common conditions (eg, diabetes, behavioral health issues) and addressable health services utilization concerns (eg, lack of preventive care) for which employers offer no- and low-cost benefit programs.Methods:   We identified groups with SDoH challenges within a commercially-insured population of 5.1 M through administrative data and self-report. Using medical claims and health assessment data, we identified populations with SDoH needs who had common conditions for which employers often provide no- or low-cost benefit programs (ie, diabetes, behavioral health conditions, high-risk pregnancy, overweight/obesity). Additionally, we sought populations with common addressable health services utilization concerns such as avoidable emergency room visits, lack of preventive care services, or non-adherence to medications. We used univariate analyses to describe the prevalence of SDoH risks in the population of interest.Results:   Twenty-seven percent of this commercially-insured population live in a zip code where the median income is at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Line. Respondents identified cost (55%) and family, school, or work responsibilities (26%) as key barriers to care. ER overutilization rates are higher in lower income zip codes than wealthier zip codes (34% vs 9%) as is the prevalence of diabetes, overweight/obesity, and behavioral issues, and decreased use of preventive services. Fifteen percent of the study population live in a low-access food area. There is considerable variability in access to employer-sponsored resources to address these needs (70% of employers provide behavioral health programs; 63% provide telehealth programs, but only 1% offer healthy food programs and less than 0.5% offer either child care or transportation support programs).Conclusions:   Commercially insured populations could benefit from employer-sponsored programs or benefits that address key SDoH barriers such as financial support, healthy food programs, child-care, and transportation.
