Rx for Equity: Creating Access to Healthcare in Central Ohio

This event has ended, but don't worry we have a new forum each week!

Optimal Health Series

Central Ohio is home to global leaders in healthcare, but access to healthcare remains uneven in the region as it is for much of the country. Some 609,517 Ohioans lost their Medicaid coverage after COVID-19 protections ended last year, but there’s also cause for optimism: a record number of Ohioans enrolled in coverage this year through the Affordable Care Act health insurance marketplace. Just how large is the challenge of inequitable access to healthcare in Central Ohio? What are the costs of uneven healthcare coverage to our region, and what are the factors that prevent many from getting the care they need? What key initiatives are healthcare leaders taking to help more Ohioans access quality healthcare beyond the emergency room? How are businesses reinventing their health plans with equity in mind? With a panel of passionate healthcare leaders, we dive into the true costs of uneven access to healthcare in Central Ohio and how the doors to quality healthcare can be opened for all.

Featuring Kate Tullio, Associate Vice President for Health Equity, CareSource; Amy Rohling McGee, President, Health Policy Institute of Ohio; Dr. Chyke Doubeni, Chief Health Equity Officer, Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center; Carrie Harris-Muller, Senior Vice President and Chief Population Health Officer, OhioHealth and with moderator Angela Dawson, Executive Director, Ohio Commission on Minority Health.
