The healthcare system in the United States (US) is complex and often fragmented across national and regional health plans which exhibit substantial variability in benefit design and formulary policies for accessing medications. We propose an access-focused value assessment framework for formulary decision-making for medications to manage immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), where patients are at the center of this framework. Formulary decision-making for IMID medications can be a challenging, even daunting, task with continuously evolving and enhanced treat-to-target goals.

- The study aims to explore how various unmet social needs (USN) relate to self-reported absenteeism due to injury and illness (SRIRA).
- A retrospective analysis using linear regression found that more unmet social needs correlate with increased absenteeism, with specific needs like caregiving, food, and healthcare significantly impacting SRIRA.
- The findings suggest that employers might improve employee well-being and reduce absenteeism by offering comprehensive support for these social needs.
