One of the biggest buzzwords in health care today is equity. While a spotlight is shining on making health care accessible to all, gaps remain based on socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, and geography. Equity challenges are likely to increase in the near future as personalized medicine and genomics usher in a new wave of diagnostics and treatments. The Health Equity Innovation Summit explores this landscape—its challenges and solutions.
Presented by TAMU Health, a key player in healthcare delivery in Texas, the Summit will feature expert panels and speakers discussing the determinants of healthcare equity, including uneven access to clinical trials and cutting-edge treatments. These experts will discuss policy and practice actions to build networks and collaborations that can promote increased equity and begin to address workforce shortages that affect many Texans, especially those living in rural areas.
