In this episode we explore the new CMS framework for health equity.  Health equity as a regulatory mandate is a new concept.  We’ve long had some related requirements including a) ADA physical environment rules, b) ant-discrimination and c) language assistance.  But until now, we have not seen a regulatory focus on health equity. Join us for this episode with Cris Lopez, VillageMD Vice President of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, and Gary Jacobs, Executive Director of VillageMD Center for Public Policy, as we dive into what this means and what’s to come from this within healthcare in the future.
