Roundtable on Health Disparities,Forum on the Science of Health Care Quality Improvement and Implementation

To receive the greatest value for health care, it is important to focus on issues of quality and disparity, and the ability of individuals to make appropriate decisions based on basic health knowledge and services. The Forum on the Science of Health Care Quality Improvement and Implementation, the Roundtable on Health Disparities, and the Roundtable on Health Literacy jointly convened the workshop Toward Health Equity and Patient-Centeredness: Integrating Health Literacy, Disparities Reduction, and Quality Improvement to address these concerns. During this workshop, speakers and participants explored how equity in care delivered and a focus on patients could be improved.
