Health Equity
Michigan Medicine's Commitment to Inclusive Healthcare Research and Access
Dedicated to providing equitable care to all patients and improving the lives of people who have been marginalized.
A patient’s race, age, gender, disability-status, location, and many other factors can impact the way they are treated when seeking care, what therapies are available to them, and their health-related quality of life and life expectancy.
Michigan Medicine researchers are dedicated to bringing about health equity, transforming how the next generation of scientists approach health related research, and ensuring that all people have access to the best healthcare and the ability to live long, healthy lives
