Health equity issues in our country have been around for decades – largely impacting communities of color and rural areas. When it comes to economic and racial disparities in health the evidence is clear. This is more than a hot topic. Covid-19 has exposed the underbelly of how social determinants of health and racial disparities play out in our country. What we need now is to impart lasting change. Welcome to the InOn Health podcast. I’m your host Kaakpema Yelpaala, and I’m the co-founder and CEO of InOn Health. In this podcast we’re going to be talking about health equity. We’ll be talking to entrepreneurs, thought leaders, investors, and other industry experts in healthcare and public health. The topics we’ll cover will range from racial disparities in health to digital innovation for diverse populations, and ultimately how we build better policy to more inclusively serve everyone around their healthcare needs. Join me on this podcast series to not only be inspired by our leaders but also to get insight on how we can all take action.

Under the visionary leadership of Lieutenant Governor Dianne Primavera, the state of Colorado hopes to connect 99% of households to high-speed internet by 2027. This is just one of the initiatives in a larger plan to lead by example in establishing sustainable practices for addressing health care inequity. As Lt. Governor Primavera moves into her second term, she is prioritizing more equitable legislation surrounding housing, healthcare and education. As the Covid-19 pandemic brought to light, many households have been negatively impacted by increasingly expensive healthcare and lack of access to digital services. In order to prevent financial toxicity, a scenario in which individuals are bankrupted by medical bills, Primavera and a team of dedicated professionals have established several innovative programs. One such program is the In Full Health Initiative, which provides resources and opportunities for organizations to connect, educate, and develop solutions to problems plaguing the healthcare system. Learning from each other in a community where many diverse voices are represented is the best way to advance equitable health innovations. Director of the Office of eHealth Innovation Stephanie Pugliese also joins the conversation. The goals of the eHealth Commission are to make information more accessible through coordinated health systems and expanding the inclusivity of health solutions. One of the first steps for achieving equity is through data collection. Colorado recently passed a bill which requires the Health Department to gather demographic data. This information helps establish a collective picture of the challenges people continue to face in receiving access to quality healthcare and health education services across the state. Working together to address growing needs in ever-changing times makes Colorado a national model for prioritizing equal access to a universal human right. Main Topics Lt. Governor’s priorities and goals for her second term (01:45) Ground-breaking Medical-Financial Partnership Program (04:13) Legislation to support equitable health care for people in Colorado (06:45) Stephanie shares updates on efforts to increase health equity (09:35) Colorado’s In Full Health Initiative (13:30) Priorities for Office of eHealth Innovation (15:30) How to bring health goals into reality (17:35) Policies that will help determine where to focus health equity efforts (19:35) Episode Links oehi.colorado.gov Connect with Lt.

The Role of Hospitals in Reducing Health Disparities and Creating Community (Revisited) with Joy Lewis 27:16

منذ 3 أعوام27:16

27:16

Joy Lewis—senior vice president of health equity strategies at the American Hospital Association—joins KP in this episode of the InOn Health podcast. They discuss the impact of hospitals in reducing health disparities for various populations in the United States. Joy reveals the vision of the American Hospital Association, which focuses on achieving a society of healthy communities with individuals reaching their highest potential for health, where everyone receives the necessary support to live the healthiest life possible. She provides insights into how (modifiable) societal factors influence health outcomes and conditions. She describes the advancement of health equity demonstrated as: "We will know we've achieved health equity when the quality of care that’s rendered does not vary based on characteristics like race, ethnicity, gender, geographic and socioeconomic status.” Joy explains advancing health equity involves removing structural barriers—dismantling the existing structure requires implementing more just action, such as creating a moral case of listening to patients as the first step. She explains how hospitals are the most influential institutions in the communities they serve. She further elaborates how the health/medical industry should pivot towards a more inclusive community partnership, involving co-designing and co-developing health equity solutions, ultimately creating sustainable solutions. Joy discusses the path to advancing equity and eliminating disparities requires the ongoing development of products, information, and resources. She outlines the evolvement in data-gathering—traditionally focused on race, ethnicity, and language—now pivoting to include sexual orientation, gender identity, and social needs. She elaborates how this data—including other factors like housing conditions, food insecurity, and transportations needs—impacts people's abilities to engage in their health. Collecting this data would serve as a guide to provide the proper clinical support while eliminating biases to ensure it does not negatively impact patients.

Confronting Racism & Racial Disparities in Healthcare Systems (Revisited) with Dr. Brittani James 41:33

منذ 3 أعوام41:33

41:33

Dr. Brittani James, family physician and Co-Founder of The Institute for Antiracism in Medicine, joins KP in the ongoing discussion addressing health equity. Dr. James begins the conversation by sharing her upbringing, witnessing segregated systems in and outside the healthcare system. She reveals how the Covid-19 pandemic spotlighted the racial disparities in the healthcare systems and the mental health impact on the Black community. While attending medical school at the University of Michigan, Dr. James reflects learning how black individuals are more inclined to experience health issues, such as diabetes and high blood pressure, but never taught the explanation of why. She further explains how race is often regarded as a biologically distinct entity, which has led to false conclusions that people of color are biologically different. This fundamental flaw inaccurately suggests and justifies the concept that people of color are “inferior” to other races on a biological and genetic level. Dr. James discusses how this misconception is evident in research studies, especially in medical journals, which are primary sources of information in medicine. She provides insights into the harmful effects of the lack of editorial neutrality in medical journals, such as the Journal of the American Medical Association, blocking scholarship of racism and findings in research. The Institute of Antiracism in Medicine is designed to train clinicians to recognize implicit biases by providing tools to serve as advocates for their patients, understanding how to engage in the topic of racism, and ultimately eliminating racism from the healthcare system. Dr. James explains confronting racism and implementing change requires a clear understanding of its foundation. The first steps to creating change involve identifying your influence and recognizing relationships in your life.

Addressing Structural Racism Through Health Equity with Dr. Nathan T. Chomilo 35:16

Dr. Nathan T. Chomilo is Medical Director for the State of Minnesota’s Medicaid and MinnesotaCare programs and practices as a General Pediatrician and an Internal Medicine Hospitalist with Park Nicollet Health Services/HealthPartners. He received a Zoology degree from Miami University (Oxford, OH) and graduated from the University of Minnesota Medical School. He completed his combined residency in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics at the University of Minnesota and was the Pediatric Chief Resident at the University of Minnesota Children's Hospital. His advocacy work has included the impact early childhood intervention and healthcare access have on the long-term prospects of our children and how physicians and health systems can address racial & health equity. In this episode, we discuss his personal background and the important work he is leading in Minnesota to reduce health disparities. Dr. Chomilo tells the story about his parents who both grew up in West Africa and both entered the medical field when they arrived in the United States and how that played a big role in his journey to becoming a doctor and an advocate for helping people navigate the healthcare system. Dr. Chomilo discusses the impacts that the killings of Philando Castile in 2016 and George Floyd in 2020 had on his career, directing his focus toward addressing structural racism in the healthcare system. He helped to start Minnesota Doctors for Health Equity, which focused on protecting the social safety net, educating physicians on their role in addressing health and racial equity as citizens and advocating in front of legislature. KP asks Dr. Chomilo about his journey to taking on the role of Director of Vaccine Equity during COVID-19 pandemic. He was also a part of the advisory committee for vaccine allocation priorities and framework, which included making recommendations for how the COVID-19 vaccine should be allocated.

Dr. Medell Briggs-Malonson, MD, MPH, MSHS is the Chief of Health Equity, Diversity and Inclusion for the UCLA Hospital and Clinic System and a practicing emergency room physician. She is also an Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. In her current role, she is responsible for the implementation and oversight of organizational structures and initiatives that promote inclusivity and equity among UCLA Health staff, patients, and communities. In this conversation, we cover Dr. Briggs’ journey as a leader in both health equity and diversity, equity, and inclusion both locally and nationally. We discuss how UCLA Health approaches these topics and some of the important insights she has regarding leadership principles to improve the U.S. healthcare system. From a young age, Dr. Briggs knew she wanted to become a doctor from a very young age and how she was exposed to the need for changes in the healthcare system, especially among the minority community. Her passion grew through her involvement in various organizations throughout college. And it was during her time at Harvard Medical School when she decided to go into public health policy and systems redesign. She also shares about her experience as a woman of color and the obstacles she faced and overcame to get to where she is today. In her role with UCLA Health, Dr. Briggs is charged with taking care of people within the organization, their patients and their communities. As a healthcare system, their #1 role is to provide equitable care. Within the organization, she makes sure they are promoting an environment that is inclusive, respectful, and celebratory of diversity. KP and Dr. Briggs discuss the intersectionality of health equity in how we treat patients and equity, diversity, and inclusion within our organizations—and how both are required in today’s healthcare. In order to advance health equity, Dr. Briggs believes you have to start with the people providing the services. She expands by talking about the process she went through to ensure that equity principles are being interwoven into the day-to-day practices and procedures to get to the systemic change they are looking to achieve. The two also discuss the financial impact of reducing health disparities and how it drives the financial game plan of an institution. Dr. Briggs dives into the responsibilities of health systems to being part of the communities and addressing the social drivers that play a larger role in overall health outcomes. She shares a couple practical initiatives of UCLA Health, including the Homeless Healthcare Collaborative, which deploys medically equipped vans throughout LA community to treat those experiencing homelessness. As a true data expert, Dr. Briggs also gives listeners insights into how UCLA Health is using a robust approach to better understand who they’re serving, how well they’re serving, and any possible inequities that need to be addressed. KP and Dr. Briggs round out the conversation by discussing landmark federal legislation that she has played a key role in drafting, including the Equal Care for All Act, which is the first piece of legislation that holds providers and organizations accountable for inequitable outcomes.
