Answer: True!

Explanation:

Social determinants of health include anything that could potentially affect your health that relates to your social standing.

People in areas with limited health care who are illiterate and suffering from poverty are almost certainly less healthy than an individual who has good insurance, ready access to medical services, is literate and so can make informed decisions, and is wealthy, due to the disparity in ability to receive care.

Hope this helps!
