❗️ Avoidable, unfair and systemic, inequity in health has been a part of the system since it began. To reshape the system, we must start every conversation with equity in mind, using technology as a lever. 🤔 But how much accountability do we have to the people in which we’re developing new technology-driven systems for? 📣 At HLTH Europe 2024, Adimika Arthur, Executive Director at Health Tech 4 Medicaid made clear it's only through collective accountability that we can drive meaningful change and build a truly equitable healthcare system. 🌐 Healthcare leaders must connect with communities broadly - beyond their immediate stakeholders - to ensure we don't lose our human connection to those we ultimately serve. 📹 Catch up on the insightful session 'Levelling the playing field: Putting equity at the centre of the discussion' over on the HLTH Community platform 👉 https://lnkd.in/e7c3c_hT #HLTHEurope #HealthEquity #Techquity #HealthcareInnovation #Healthcare #HealthcareComms #DigitalHealth #HealthTech
