The team collected data on 14,666 individuals from 6,621 families and found that food-insecure families had 20% greater total health care expenditures than food-secure families, an annual difference of about $2,456.
The results also have significant implications for any potential programs or policies aimed at addressing food insecurity. Palakshappa's team also found that 1 in 5 families had more than one insurance plan, making it challenging to determine the full financial benefit of food insecurity interventions in households with mixed insurance coverage.
