Findings from an Educational Initiative Addressing Racial Disparities and Bias in Health Care

The CME Outfitters Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) phase 1 initiative focused on six key therapeutic areas: maternal health, cardiovascular care, pain management, oral health, dermatologic health/melanoma, and elective surgery. Each of these areas face significant health inequities, leading to increased morbidity and mortality rates among  underserved populations. This digital monograph illustrates the impact of the educational initiative on HCP knowledge and competence as well as patient outcomes.
