Partnership Forum — Racial Health Disparities: A Closer Look at Benefit Design

Now more than ever, there is an increased focus on health disparities that occur across a multitude of factors, including socioeconomic status, ethnicity, and race. These health disparities result in avoidable readmissions, reduced quality of care, higher costs, and lower member satisfaction rates. Health care providers, insurers, and managed care pharmacy stakeholders need to identify organizational and system-based solutions to address systemic racial health disparities, including training Pharmacy & Therapeutics (P&T) committees properly on racial health equity, gaining a better understanding of best practices that can decrease racial health disparities related to benefit design, and disseminating these best practices.

This event is invitation-only. If you're interested in participating, please email corpopportunities@amcp.org.
