Feasibility of Linking Area Deprivation Index Data to the OMOP Common Data Model.

Linking Area Deprivation Index (ADI) scores to observational data offers the opportunity to characterize healthcare treatment and outcomes that are driven by socioeconomic deprivation. The current study aims to assess the feasibility of creating an analysis package to link ADI rankings to multiple patient-level EHR datasets transformed into the OMOP CDM. Patients within two cancer cohorts (breast cancer and multiple myeloma) were identified within two OMOP datasets and their records were linked with ADI scores using address information in the OMOP location table.
