Race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status should not define how healthy we are, or how long we live. Unfortunately for many, these factors do. Health equity is about changing our systems to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to be their healthiest. It is a top issue in the field of healthcare and public health. This episode showcases leaders that are addressing health equity and their insights.
