What is Healthcare Equity?
Healthcare equity ensures everyone has fair access to healthcare services, regardless of their background or circumstances. First, it aims to eliminate disparities by dealing with barriers such as socioeconomic status, race, and geographic location. Next, it focuses on providing appropriate care to meet the unique needs of diverse populations. Additionally, healthcare equity promotes policies and practices that distribute resources where they are most needed. It involves engaging communities and encouraging collaboration among healthcare providers, policymakers, and patients.
