Our focus on reducing disparities led to a partnership with the Institute for Healthcare Improvement. A gap in care with our Somali patient population was discovered after reviewing numbers for colorectal and breast cancer screenings, pediatric immunizations and diabetes.

In the Season 4 finale, two HealthPartners colleagues, family nurse practitioner Munira MaalimIsaq and senior project manager Greg Fedio, share how the Equity Action Lab project, or what they and participants called "Open Faces," helped assess and better understand the gaps and determine steps for changes.

"Off the Charts" returns June 11.

Hosts: Kari Haley, MD, and Steven Jackson, MD

Guests: Munira MaalimIsaq, FNP; and Greg Fedio
