Addressing Access to Health Care for Everyone

There is an urgent need to address access to health care across the United States by providing education and sharing best practices.

Most clinicians believe that access to health care is related more to the systems of care than their own decisions on when and how to provide that care. Understanding and eliminating individual and systemic barriers and social drivers of health are paramount to improving patient care. As CME/CE providers, we have a responsibility to tackle this issue and be a guiding force for health care professionals (HCPs) around the globe.

This hub serves as a framework for addressing not only the barriers to health care access, medications, and follow-up but also the stigma and social drivers that impede care for underserved patients. The educational activities and resources in this hub are designed to shed light on these matters, help HCPs recognize these issues, and empower them with tools to use in their clinical practice.
