Description: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic, autoimmune form of arthritis that is associated with a substantial humanistic and economic burden. Potential differences in patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and economic outcomes among groups of varying PsA severity and different races/ethnicities have not been well studied.This cross-sectional study assessed sociodemographic data, PROs, and economic outcomes for participants with PsA from the National Health and Wellness Survey (2018-2020). Multivariable analyses were used to assess the association of self-reported PsA severity and race/ethnicity with health-related quality of life (HRQoL), work productivity and activity impairment (WPAI), healthcare resource utilization (HCRU), and medical costs.This study included 1544 participants with PsA (1073 non-Hispanic white, 114 non-Hispanic Black, 223 Hispanic, and 134 Other). Self-reported moderate/severe PsA was associated with significantly worse HRQoL and WPAI, greater HCRU, and higher costs than self-reported mild PsA. Black participants reported more absenteeism (31.11% vs. 16.69%; P = 0.007) and activity impairment (54.27% vs. 47.96%; P = 0.047) than white participants, and fewer healthcare provider (5.93 vs. 7.42; P = 0.039) and rheumatologist visits (0.29 vs. 0.53; P = 0.028) over the past 6 months. No differences in outcomes were observed between Hispanic and white participants. Race/ethnicity moderated the association of perceived PsA severity and PROs and HCRU, such that white participants with self-reported moderate/severe PsA had a higher likelihood of depression (P
