A diverse group of health care professionals from across the country gathered today to express their support for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies in health care. These organizations, including the ACCME, ACGME, ABMS, AMA, AOA, AAMC, CMSS, NBME, NBOME, and NRMP, believe that promoting DEI in health care can improve the overall health of the nation.
Representing a diverse group of physicians from various specialties and backgrounds, these organizations have dedicated their careers to improving patient outcomes. They have worked tirelessly to provide physicians with the necessary tools and evidence to deliver high-quality care to their patients.
The push for DEI in health care is an effort to address long-standing disparities within the health care system and their impact on patient health. These organizations believe that true excellence in patient care can only be achieved with a physician workforce that is capable of addressing patients’ needs holistically. They also believe that the medical profession should be accessible to all qualified individuals.
Standing united, these organizations are committed to promoting inclusive excellence to ensure the best possible outcomes for their members and the patients they serve. By supporting and implementing DEI policies, they aim to create a more equitable and inclusive health care system for all.
