Healthcare Equity

 

What is healthcare equity?

Healthcare equity refers to the fair and equal distribution of healthcare resources and services, regardless of an individual's race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, gender, or geographic location. Healthcare equity aims to ensure that everyone has access to quality healthcare and can receive the medical attention they need to maintain good health and well-being. This involves addressing disparities in health outcomes and addressing the root causes of health inequities.
