There is a paucity of data regarding HF incidence among low-income and minority populations. Our objective was to investigate HF incidence and post-HF survival by race and sex among low-income adults in the southeastern US. Participants were 27,078 white and black men and women enrolled during 2002–2009 in the Southern Community Cohort Study (SCCS) who had no history of HF and were receiving Centers for Medicare or Medicaid services (CMS). Incident HF diagnoses through December 31, 2010 were ascertained using ICD-9 codes 428.x via linkage with CMS research files. Most participants were black (68.8%), women (62.6%) and earned < $15,000/year (69.7%); mean age was 55.5 (10.4) years. Risk factors for HF were common: hypertension (62.5%), diabetes (26.5%), myocardial infarction (8.6%) and obesity (44.8%). Over a median follow-up of 5.2 years, 4,341 participants were diagnosed with HF. The age-standardized incidence rates were 34.8, 37.3, 34.9 and 35.6 PY/1000 in white women, white men, black men and black women, respectively, remarkably higher than previously reported. Among HF cases, 952 deaths occurred over a median follow-up 2.3 years. Men had lower survival; hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals were 1.63 (1.27–2.08), 1.38 (1.11–1.72) and 0.90 (0.73–1.12) for white men, black men and black women compared with white women. In this low-income population, HF incidence was higher for all race-sex groups than previously reported in other cohorts. The SCCS is a unique resource to investigate determinants of HF risk in a segment of the population underrepresented in other existing cohorts.
