Identifying and addressing health disparities: PhRMA's first chart pack on health equity

PhRMA is proud to announce the release of its first everchart pack on health equity. This chart pack contains information on health equity in three sections: (1) A Snapshot of Health Disparities in America, (2) Inequities in Access to Screenings and Medicines Allow Health Disparities to Persist, and (3) PhRMA ’s Commitment to Building a More Equitable Health Care System for All. As a public health professional, health equity is a cornerstone of the work I do as it impacts every aspect of our nation’s health care system. Unfortunately, some populations face unequitable access to care due to their back ground, where they live, or how much money they make, among other factors. It is crucial that we make an effort to understand and discuss these inequities while working to build a more just, equitable health care system for all patients.
