- The emergence and increasing use of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) in healthcare practice and delivery is being greeted with both optimism and caution. We focus on the nexus of AI/ML and racial disparities in healthcare: an issue that must be addressed if the promise of AI to improve patient care and health outcomes is to be realized in an equitable manner for all…March 2023Health Reform, Isms and Phobias
- There’s a lot to fix about America’s broken systems. One of the most important is healthcare. In the ongoing fight for racial justice, we must call on those in power to center the fight for equity around health. For too long, our country’s racist infrastructure has overburdened the physical and mental health of our communities. Without access to quality healthcare, people of color will not be…April 2022Advocacy, Health Reform
- Medical-legal partnerships effectively mitigate some social determinants of health impacting pediatric populations, reducing hospitalizations by over a third, according to the latest data in Health Affairs emailed to journalists. Particularly, medical-legal partnerships can help children and their families ameliorate issues like potential eviction, denial of public benefits like food stamps or…March 2022Health Reform, Social Environment
- The private practice of psychiatry is in slow decline, and collaborative care will be its replacement. This is an inevitable result of the reality that there are too few psychiatrists being trained to cover the psychiatric needs of a growing population; increased rates of depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders across the population; and reduced stigma, which previously served as a…December 2021Mental/Behavioral Health, Health Reform
- Artificial intelligence (AI) holds great promise for improving health care and public health. By leveraging and processing large amounts of data at far greater speeds than humans, AI can generate predictions that can inform policy or treatment decisions. But as predictive algorithms in medicine and public health increase and the fields rely on them more, policymakers, data scientists, ethicists,…November 2021Health Reform
- Background: Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people present poorer mental and physical health results compared to the heterosexual and cisgender population. There are barriers in the healthcare system that increase these health inequities. Objective: To synthesise the available evidence on how nurses can intervene in reducing health inequities in LGBT people, identifying their…November 2021Chronic Disease, Mental/Behavioral Health, Health Reform, Social/Structural Determinants
- Come October, the maximum benefit levels in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly the Food Stamp Program) will be based on the market basket costs of the 2021 Thrifty Food Plan. The result will be an increase of 21 percent — about 40 cents per person per meal — in the maximum SNAP benefit over the pre-pandemic amount. Because the 21 percent increase will go into effect at…August 2021Health Reform
- Health care is at a junction, a point where artificial intelligence tools are being introduced to all areas of the space. This introduction comes with great expectations: AI has the potential to greatly improve existing technologies, sharpen personalized medicines, and, with an influx of big data, benefit historically underserved populations.But in order to do those things, the health care…June 2021Health Reform
- Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to drastically improve patient outcomes. AI utilizes algorithms to assess data from the world, make a representation of that data, and use that information to make an inference. From handling administrative tasks to actively diagnosing disease, AI could make treatment faster and more effective in clinical settings, especially as technology continues…March 2021Health Reform
- Over the ten years of the Building Healthy Communities initiative (BHC), The California Endowment (TCE) cycled through multiple outcome frameworks as the terrain of the BHC work became more complex. Does that mean that TCE had no idea what we were doing? Or was the repeated swapping of one framework for another, a sign that we became a learning organization that was open to emergence, evolution,…January 2021Health Reform, Social Environment
