National Health Equity Grand Rounds (No-cost CME)
Follow the Money! Understanding the Structural Incentives for Inequity in Health Care and Beyond
The May 9th event will feature speakers who are dismantling inequity within and beyond health care. Expert speakers will challenge our audience to participate in the reimagination of a health care system that centers community and healing over profiteering. Our speakers will discuss how profit in health care incentivizes inequity by perpetuating and exacerbating segregated systems of care, which serves to maintain class inequality. They will also highlight strategies for disrupting our existing systems to catalyze change within and beyond single institutions; and explore how the process of undoing structural incentives for inequity creates opportunities for collective liberation and healing.
