Health Equity Leader 2024
Health Equity Leader 2024
This category celebrates leaders who have demonstrated a strong commitment to eliminating disparities, fostering inclusivity, and promoting equal opportunities for all healthcare professionals, regardless of their background, identity, or socioeconomic status.
Eligible nominees for this award are those who have initiated, implemented, or supported policies, programs, or initiatives that address systemic inequalities within healthcare settings. These efforts may include, but are not limited to, developing culturally competent care models, advocating for policy changes that support underrepresented healthcare workers, implementing diversity and inclusion training programs, or creating support networks aimed at minority healthcare professionals.
Health outcomes are different, and some are dependent on your zip code. This category is for a leader in health equity, improving outcomes, education, and understanding. Better care starts with physicians who understand the patients they serve, and increased access to medical education. Past winners include Sachin Jain, MD, Jay Bhatt, DO, and Airica Steed, MBA, RN.
