Health Care Equity Accreditation Resource Center

The Joint Commission

Abstract

[This is an excerpt.] The resource center is designed to provide information to help you on the journey to health care equity, regardless of where you are on the path. For example, it has basic information on how to screen for health-related social needs and how to stratify measures to examine health care disparities. We have included brief synopses of approaches used by other organizations (Snapshots) and videos of organizations’ lessons learned (Soundbites). The resource center also has more advanced materials, such as examples of published, successful interventions to address common disparities that you may wish to implement in your organization and include in your action plan. We will be continuously monitoring the literature and talking with organizations so we can expand and improve the resource center. Sign up to be alerted when new resources are added.
