Social drivers of health – like housing instability, food insecurity, health literacy and others – have always disproportionately affected patients in disadvantaged or underserved communities. And policymakers and the healthcare industry, in just the last few years, have recognized the importance of investing in reducing these barriers to care. This is precisely where FQHCs stand out - as providers actively working with the highest risk patient populations who see the impact of social drivers of health every day.

A recent National Academies report says that the United States has made little progress in advancing health care equity over the past two decades, and racial and ethnic inequities remain a fundamental flaw for the nation’s health care system. The report documents the numerous and pervasive inequities in U.S. health care while also providing recommendations to help remedy these inequities. “Eliminating health care inequities is an achievable and feasible goal, and improving the health of individuals in the nation’s most disadvantaged communities improves the quality of care for everyone,” says report committee co-chair Georges C. Benjamin. To learn more about the report, visit https://ow.ly/esee50T22tj. #HealthEquity #HealthDisparities #SDOH #HealthCare

🌈 To recognise the beginning of Pride Month, we wanted to bring awareness to the health challenges LGBTQI+ individuals face. Did you know? LGBTQI+ communities are more likely to experience worse health outcomes than the general population, find it harder to access services, and have poorer experiences of services when they do access them (Kings Fund 2021). Reducing health inequalities across the population is one of the key aims of NHS Integrated Care Boards. We have joined forces with the NHS Confederation to produce a new toolkit to support healthcare organisations in their drive to tackle this problem.

To achieve health equity, it's essential to recognize and address the root causes of health disparities. This involves advocating for policies that promote fair access to healthcare, education, employment, and housing, while also tackling systemic issues such as poverty and discrimination. By fostering collaboration between healthcare providers, policymakers, and community organizations, we can implement targeted interventions and initiatives that address the specific needs of underserved populations. Together, we can create a more equitable healthcare system that ensures everyone has the opportunity to attain their optimal health. #aiidevafrica #acceleratesdgs #goodhealth #healthcare #sdgs
