Maggie Mahar: “This is because socioeconomic status includes access to health care and a variety of other factors. Even if when the poor have insurance, they are less likely to have access to cutting-edge medical discoveries; they’re more likely to smoke, more likely to be obese, more likely to live in unsafe or unhealthy environments. They also tend to be less educated, meaning that they are less able to manage chronic diseases.”
