Résumé

Promoting equitable health care is to ensure that everyone has access to high-quality medical services and appropriate treatment options. The definition of health equity often can be misinterpreted, and there are challenges in fully understanding the disparities and costs of health care and when measuring the outcomes of treatment. However, these topics play an important role in promoting health equity. The COVID-19 pandemic has made us more aware of profound health-care disparities and systemic racism, which, in turn, has prompted many academic medical centers and health-care systems to increase their efforts surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion. Therefore, it is important to understand the problems that some patients have in accessing care, promote health care that is culturally competent, create policies and standard operating procedures (at the federal, state, regional, or institutional level), and be innovative to provide cost-effective care for the underserved population. All of these efforts can assist in promoting equitable care and thus result in a more just and healthier society.
