You have undoubtedly heard how the Covid-19 pandemic further exposed inequities in healthcare delivery and access to care. The purpose of the Health Equity Forum is to bring awareness to disparities within the healthcare ecosystem and to discuss solutions to healthcare inequality from a variety of perspectives, including the patient, provider, payer, and policy maker.
Our diverse panel of experts will offer their unique point of view and inform us on what is being done to tackle healthcare gaps that particularly impact women and especially women of color.
