Follow the Money! Understanding the Structural Incentives for Inequity in Health Care and Beyond

The National Health Equity Grand Rounds is a live virtual event series that highlights the root causes of present-day health inequities by tracing the historical and contemporary social, economic, political, geographic, and environmental forces that shape opportunities for health in the United States.

The May 9th event will feature speakers who are disrupting and dismantling inequity within and beyond health care. They will explore how we can use money as medicine, learning from experience in other sectors to reimagine a health care system that heals and serves all patients, health care providers, and communities. Our speakers will discuss how profit in health care incentivizes inequity by perpetuating and exacerbating segregated systems of care, which serves to maintain class inequality. They will also highlight strategies for disrupting our existing systems to catalyze change within and beyond single institutions; and explore how the process of undoing structural incentives for inequity creates opportunities for collective liberation and healing.
