Long-standing systemic discrimination—in housing, income, education, and healthcare access—have been placed in the spotlight as a result of the disproportionate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on underserved communities. To make progress on health equity, digital interventions can serve as a part of the programs put in place to provide equal access and opportunity for healthcare and other social services.
Digital platform for health equity.
- Enhance patient engagement with payors and providers, providing interventions to care gaps
- Reduction in manual coordination required to find community resources
