The United States has the most expensive healthcare system in the world, according to the Commonwealth Fund,(1) and the inequities and disparities the system suffers from are palpable and evident. JOTO PR Disruptors(TM) announces the signing of Impact4Health, a multidisciplinary team of community psychologists, public health researchers, physicians and health educators, who are actively working on the disruption of the current state of healthcare and to promote health equity.

“More than half of the U.S.’ population is expected to be minority groups by 2044,” Karla Jo Helms, Chief Evangelist and Anti-PR(TM) Strategist, for JoTo PR, said. “Impact4Health is at the forefront of working to promote diversity and inclusivity in healthcare to meet this growing need.”

Impact4Health is dedicated to reducing healthcare disparities through healthcare innovations, training and effective community and stakeholder engagement. Their focus encompasses four areas—Pay for Success (PFS) initiatives, healthcare staff training, community engagement and population health.

Impact4Health’s Inclusion Scorecard for Population Health directly addresses the concern over bias and the lack of equity in healthcare. The scorecard provides a customized dashboard of more than 70 best practices. Healthcare leaders can access the online tool to evaluate their health management strategy in four distinct areas: tracking key metrics about the population served and the overall diversity of staff at all levels, building a culture of inclusion throughout the health system, creating greater accountability among leaders to address health disparities and developing higher engagement with diverse community stakeholders.
