Looking at race and ethnicity just when you measure patient experience is inadequate to drive health equity. It’s a cop out. And it overly shifts blame onto providers, absolving leaders of our broken systems. Here’s a perfect example courtesy of mega-firm Deloitte. They could’ve broken down for us access to different digital solutions and digital outcome care abouts by race and ethnicity. (Aka “techquity”). That would’ve been informative. Instead we see tired, well-known findings about poor experiences of care and maternal mortality. #maternalhealth #healthequity entails addressing structural barriers as much as barriers of discrimination in care. Including #healthcareinnovation typically underinvesting in population-specific digital tools. Don’t get me wrong - we as providers have a lot to work on.
