| book description |

This book presents the first extensive exploration of how social determinants of health impact the lived experience of those with epilepsy and contribute to disparities and inequities in outcomes for individuals with epilepsy and other chronic conditions.Social determinants of health are fundamental drivers of health and disease, yet few publications have extensively examined the role of social determinants in treatment disparities. A deeper understanding of the role played by these factors-including social, economic, historical, and systemic inequalities-is a critical step towards closing these gaps in understanding. This book offers not only a deeper dive into the social determinants of health and their relation to epilepsy, but also explores what is known on this topic internationally and how it compares to the American experience. In addition, readers will find a description of ground-breaking research examining the role of social determinants and treatment delays for an under-examined population-low-income communities on the Medicaid program in a diverse American state. The book will appeal to a wide variety of audiences and offers the reader an opportunity to better understand the concept of social determinants of health and how they impact those living with chronic conditions like epilepsy. Specific considerations are placed on describing the impact of low socio-economic status and discrimination, as well as the COVID-19 pandemic.
