Health care and medical associations across the nation have come together to advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies in the industry. Including organizations such as the ACCME, ACGME, ABMS, AMA, AOA, AAMC, CMSS, NBME, NBOME, and NRMP, these groups believe that promoting DEI can improve the overall health of the nation.
Representing a diverse group of physicians from various specialties and backgrounds in the United States, these organizations have dedicated their careers to improving patient outcomes. They have worked tirelessly to provide physicians with the necessary tools and evidence to deliver high-quality care to their patients.
The push for DEI in health care is an effort to address long-standing disparities within the system that impact patient health. These organizations believe that true excellence in patient care can only be achieved with a physician workforce capable of addressing patients’ needs holistically. They also believe that the medical profession should be accessible to all qualified individuals.
United by their commitment to promoting inclusive excellence, these organizations aim to create a more equitable and inclusive health care system for all through supporting and implementing DEI policies.
