On March 25, the Engelberg Center for Health Care Reform hosted a national conference to begin to address health care quality issues faced by vulnerable communities. Key stakeholders came together to:
- Advance strategies for improved data collection, integration, and utilization activities, as well as disparities measurement to promote health care equity; and
- Identify best practices for collecting and reporting race, ethnicity, and primary language data, as well as determine practical, consensus-driven steps to measure and use these data to improve quality of care.
Vice Admiral Regina M. Benjamin, surgeon general of the United States, offered keynote remarks, discussing the critical need for improved health care quality and equitable care for all Americans.
A plenary session focused on incentivizing quality as a means of promoting equity in the health care enterprise, followed by closing remarks from Marsha Lillie-Blanton and Mark McClellan.
