Why Is This Questionnaire Used?

Healthcare teams use this information to identify potential challenges you might face, such as housing instability, food insecurity, or limited healthcare access. It helps providers offer targeted support, like connecting you to resources or adjusting care plans.

What Does This Questionnaire Cover?

You’ll answer questions about your living situation (e.g., housing type, stability), income, employment status, access to healthcare, and any barriers to getting medical care during the pandemic. It’s voluntary and confidential.

How Is This Questionnaire Different from a Lab Test?

Unlike blood or urine tests, this questionnaire is a survey about your personal circumstances. It’s not a diagnostic tool but may be used alongside other medical assessments to guide care decisions.

Will My Answers Be Shared with My Doctor?

Your answers are kept private and shared only with your healthcare team if they determine it’s necessary for your care. They’ll use this information to provide more personalized support.

Clinical interpretation

How abnormal results are interpreted and what conditions they suggest.

Socioeconomic conditions can impact your overall health, including your risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes. For example, limited resources may affect your ability to follow medical advice, access vaccines, or manage chronic conditions. This questionnaire helps healthcare providers address these factors proactively.
