Addressing Health Disparities Amid Growing Health Care Costs
Health care costs and spending continue to increase, contributing to the lack of affordable health care and growing health inequities. What can be done to address this? Join Health Affairs December 16 for a virtual event exploring how efforts designed to increase access to and quality of care for underserved communities may align with efforts to address the rising cost of health care. On the heels of the second season of Research & Justice For All, this virtual event will provide an opportunity to discuss the impact of adopting drivers of health on achieving health equity, in the context of rising health care costs. This event is sponsored by Deloitte*. Health Affairs' Director of Health Equity Vabren Watts, PhD, will moderate the virtual briefing.
Speakers include:
•Margarita Alegria, PhD, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School
• Andrew Anderson, PhD, Johns Hopkins University
• Nelson Dunlap, JD, Meharry Medical College
