Hear from Families USA experts about the Center on Health Equity Action for System Transformation, a first-of-its-kind entity launched last December dedicated to the development and advancement of patient-centered health system transformation policies, designed to reduce racial, ethnic, and geographic inequities.
We will provide an overview of the Center's goals and projects, our conceptual framework, and how to get involved. We will also discuss its newest program, the Evidence for Equitty Initiative, where we will explain the critical role of evidence in advancing health equity with a focus on comparative effectiveness research (CER) and patient-centered outcomes reasearch (PCOR).
