A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Summary

Low income is linked to worse health and shorter lifespans. Income support programs can improve health, but unequal access to these safety nets, like the Earned Income Tax Credit, creates disparities.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Economics
  • Social Determinants of Health

Background:

  • Low income is a significant social determinant of health, correlating with increased disease risk and reduced lifespan.
  • Health disparities exist across all income levels, with the most severe outcomes observed in poverty.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize evidence on the relationship between income and health.
  • To examine the role of income support programs in mitigating health inequities.
  • To identify challenges and strategies for improving equitable access to income supports.

Main Methods:

  • Literature synthesis of existing research on income, health outcomes, and income support programs.
  • Analysis of policy variations in state-level income support program availability.

Main Results:

  • Evidence confirms a strong link between lower income and poorer health outcomes.
  • Income support programs demonstrate potential to improve health by addressing basic needs and fostering economic stability.
  • Significant inequities in access to and participation in programs like the Earned Income Tax Credit exist due to state-level variations.

Conclusions:

  • Addressing income inequality is crucial for improving population health.
  • Policy interventions are needed to overcome barriers and ensure equitable access to income support programs.
  • Strategies to enhance participation in programs like the Earned Income Tax Credit can reduce health disparities.
