Use of digital healthcare technologies – for clinicians and patients – is growing. To ensure these solutions benefit all patient groups, creators and users must be intentional about equity. To address this, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) developed evidence- and consensus-based resources to help organizations intentionally consider equity in the development and use of digital healthcare technologies and solutions. The Practical Implementation Guide provides digital healthcare developers and vendors, healthcare systems, clinical providers, and payers an interactive checklist of steps and real-world examples for how to advance equity across all phases of the Digital Healthcare Lifecycle. Regardless of the size of an organization or the complexity of the solution this expert Guide can help. If you are interested in learning more about these resources, including the Evidence- and Consensus-Based Digital Healthcare Equity Framework which included an environmental scan, engagement of the technical expert panel (TEP), and reviews by internal and external advisors, visit the AHRQ Digital Healthcare Equity Framework project profile. |
