An Investigation of the Representation of Social Determinants of Health in the UMLS. Rawat, B. P. S., Keating, H., Goodwin, R., Druhl, E., & Yu, H. AMIA Annual Symposium Proceedings, 2022:912–921, April, 2023. Paper abstract bibtex Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) are the conditions in which people are born, live, work, and age. Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) incorporates SDOH concepts; but few have evaluated its coverage and quality. With 15,649 expert-annotated SDOH mentions from 3176 randomly selected electronic health record (EHR) notes, we found that 100% SDOH mentions can be mapped to at least one UMLS concept, indicating a good coverage of SDOH. However, we discovered a few challenges for the UMLS’s representation of SDOH. Next, we developed a multi-step framework to identify SDOH concepts from UMLS, and a clinical BERT-based classification algorithm to assign each identified SDOH concept to one of the six general categories. Our multi-step framework extracted a total of 198, 677 SDOH concepts from the UMLS and the SDOH category classification system attained an accuracy of 91%. We also built EASE: an open-source tool to Extract SDOH from EHRs.
