A new study led by UCLA Health highlights the link between socioeconomic disadvantage, Medicaid insurance, and poorer survival rates after heart transplantation. Researchers found that Medicaid-insured heart transplant patients had a higher likelihood of developing cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV), a condition that affects transplanted hearts and can limit long-term survival. It has been reported that CAV contributes to more than 30% of all deaths in the first 5 to 10 years following heart transplantation.
