Infographic: Are Health Tech Companies Following Through on their Health Equity Commitments?
Health equity? Check. Community? Not so much. This infographic examines various organizations and their inclusion of health equity statements. It highlights whether the organizations have community-based or local partnerships in their state and if they address social determinants of health (SDOH), reflecting their deeper commitment to health equity.
Our findings indicate that while many health tech companies are making strides in incorporating health equity into their branding, there is still significant room for improvement in tangible community engagement and support for diverse populations. The limited number of partnerships with community-based organizations and the sparse mention of LGBTQIA+/gender-affirming care indicate a gap between commitment and action.
To truly honor health equity commitments, companies must prioritize forming meaningful local partnerships and addressing the specific needs of marginalized communities. At Communicate For Health Justice (CFHJ), we can help organizations communicate about these critical areas authentically and in a community-centered way. It is not enough to make statements; follow through on your words to drive meaningful change. Contact us to learn more.
