The CMS Equity Plan for Improving Quality in Medicare outlines how the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services plans to advance health equity by improving the quality of care provided to minority and other underserved Medicare beneficiaries.
The framework for the plan consists of three interconnected domains: 1. Increasing understanding and awareness of disparities 2. Creating and sharing solutions 3. Accelerating implementation of effective actions In order to achieve complete equity, the framework and plan calls for continuous improvement and action—starting with the six priorities: Priority 1: Expand the Collection, Reporting, and Analysis of Standardized Data Priority 2: Evaluate Disparities Impacts and Integrate Equity Solutions Across CMS Programs Priority 3: Develop and Disseminate Promising Approaches to Reduce Health Disparities Priority 4: Increase the Ability of the Health Care Workforce to Meet the Needs of Vulnerable Populations Priority 5: Improve Communication and Language Access for Individuals with Limited English Proficiency and Persons with Disabilities Priority 6: Increase Physical Accessibility of Health Care Facilities 7 April 2020 is the day to celebrate the work of nurses and midwives and remind world leaders of the critical role they play in keeping the world healthy. Nurses and other health workers are at the forefront of COVID-19 response - providing high quality, respectful treatment and care, leading community dialogue to address fears and questions and, in some instances, collecting data for clinical studies. Quite simply, without nurses, there would be no response.
In this International Year of the Nurse and the Midwife, World Health Day will highlight the current status of nursing and around the world. WHO and its partners will make a series of recommendations to strengthen of the nursing and midwifery workforce. WHO has released the State of the World’s Nursing Report 2020 https://www.who.int/news-room/campaigns/world-health-day/world-health-day-2020 |
