Impact of Health Literacy on Medication Adherence Among Black Medicaid Beneficiaries with Hypertension in Delaware: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Racial and ethnic minorities are disproportionately affected by limited health literacy. Therefore, this study assessed census block health literacy level and medication adherence in Delaware among Black individuals with hypertension (HTN) receiving health care through Medicaid. This was a cross-sectional study of Black Delaware Medicaid beneficiaries (18-64 years old) from the 3 counties in Delaware (Kent, New Castle, and Sussex) from 2016 to 2019.
