As health delivery services evolve and technology advances, healthcare professionals must keep pushing for equity in healthcare. Providers, hospitals, researchers, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and health systems play vital roles in maintaining equity in care delivery.

  • Increasing health care and screening access;
  • Improving health outcomes for medically underserved populations; and
