Health Equity
We believe that every person should have the opportunity to live their healthiest and happiest life, regardless of where they live, work or play. We are focused on eliminating the obstacles and taking steps to advance health equity in the communities we serve.
One of the ways we can better promote health equity is through provider and community collaboration. As we focus more on value-based care and community health, understanding the language and topics related to health equity will be at the core of this initiative.
That’s why we are committed to bringing you high quality resources, including trainings, articles, case studies and more. Keep checking back for more resources related to health equity.
