A recent report from Ernst & Young (EY) showed that 65% of healthcare organizations have had a positive return on health equity efforts and 83% have seen improved health outcomes. The report, based on a survey of 500 health equity leaders, found that most organizations believe prioritization and financial investment in health equity will increase. Data-driven approaches and technology are being used to improve health equity, but organizations face challenges such as competing priorities and lack of financial commitment. Collaboration and partnerships are seen as crucial in achieving health equity goals. Larger organizations are more likely to have advanced health equity programs.
