Health equity



Use the resources on this portal to learn how you can provide culturally sensitive care and advance health equity for the members, patients and communities we serve.



Advancing health equity in our care & coverage

We have a longstanding commitment to improving the health and well-being of the diverse communities we serve. In our Health Equity and Eliminating Disparities cornerstone, we are not just defining and measuring but actively working on understanding the stories the measures are telling us and improving the process for patients and members. We know our work is never done; our approach to eliminating any gaps in care and areas we're focused on right now are listed below.


Increasing diversity and inclusion in our workplace

There's power and potential in diversity. Everyone benefits - patients, members, colleagues and the community - when we create a more diverse and inclusive workplace. When we understand and embrace our differences, we are better colleagues. We work together more collaboratively to best serve our patients and members. Plus, we're more creative and more connected. Overall, we do our jobs better.

Led by our Diversity & Inclusion Team, our cornerstone is focused on building a workforce represents those we serve, creating equitable policies and practices for our patients, members, colleagues and community; and ensuring every person is welcome, included and valued.


Partnering with the community & advocating for change because health happens outside the doctor's office

We believe in the power of good - of good deeds, good feelings and good people working together.

Getting good care in a clinic or hospital is important. But, it's only a small part of what makes us healthy. Health also has to do with a good education, a good environment and a good community. That's why we're committed to working with those who are making good happen all around us.

We're stronger when we can pull organizations together to achieve common goals. Equity is an important part of each of our community partnerships, and with like-minded organizations, we push for change.

Led by our Community Relations team, our commitment in this cornerstone is to engage in community partnerships and advocacy to advance health equity, education and economic development
