AHA Community Health Improvement’s Post

"We are creating a seat at the table where no seat has existed before. We are giving a voice to people who are deserving." Our Health Equity Accelerator is deeply committed to listening to and partnering with our community. We're focused on incorporating multiple mechanisms to engage with our patients and community leaders every step of the way. At BMC, we are #RewritingHealthcare by expanding our clinical excellence beyond traditional care — addressing issues such as housing, food security, and economic mobility.

We know that health is much bigger than what happens at the doctor’s office. That’s why our focus on health equity doesn’t stop at healthcare services. It’s about working to help our members and communities across the country get the day-to-day resources and support they need to achieve their full health potential. Humana and CenterWell continue to prove our commitment to health equity through: - $90M to help provide affordable housing - $10M to equity-focused community programs and organizations - 250K meals and $15,000 supplied from 2023 Food & Fund Drive - 282K referrals in Humana Community Navigator®, which helps people find low- and no-cost resources in their community Read more about Humana’s health equity efforts in our 2023 Impact Report: https://huma.na/4bj8OZi #HealthEquity #HumanaImpactReport

As health advocates, we stand on the front lines of a crucial battle: the fight for health equity. Health equity ensures that everyone, regardless of their background, has access to the care they need to live a healthy life. It means addressing the systemic barriers and disparities that prevent marginalized communities from receiving adequate healthcare. This is not just a matter of fairness; it's a matter of justice and humanity. At the Global Healthy Living Foundation (GHLF), we are committed to bridging these gaps. Through our diverse initiatives, we strive to provide accessible, patient-centered resources that empower individuals to take control of their health. Our programs are designed to reach those who are often overlooked, ensuring that everyone has a voice in their health journey. Why is this important? Because true health advocacy means championing the rights of every individual to receive quality care. It's about creating a healthcare system that serves all people, not just the privileged few. Health equity is not a distant goal; it's a necessary and urgent mission. Join us in this critical work. Together, we can create a world where health equity is a reality for all. 💪❤️ #HealthEquity #HealthcareForAll #GHLF #PatientAdvocacy #SocialJustice Global Healthy Living Foundation
