Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Healthcare: Leading Associations Unite for Change

The medical and healthcare industry in the US is diverse, with a wide range of professionals from various specialties and backgrounds. These professionals have dedicated their careers to improving patient outcomes and delivering high-quality care to their patients.

Today, leading health care and medical associations from across the country came together to voice their support for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies in health care. These organizations believe that promoting DEI in health care can help improve the overall health of the nation. They also believe that true excellence in patient care can only be achieved with a physician workforce that is capable of addressing patients’ needs holistically.

The push for DEI in health care is an effort to address the long-standing disparities within the health care system and their impact on patient health. By supporting and implementing DEI policies, these organizations aim to create a more equitable and inclusive health care system for all. Standing united, they are committed to promoting inclusive excellence to ensure the best possible outcomes for their members and the patients they serve.
