Guidelines for Health Equity as we Transition to Telehealth and other Digital Forums
Join GLOBO and Dr. Christina Cordero of The Joint Commission to learn how to keep patient-centered communication at the forefront of care in the changing healthcare landscape.
We'll talk about:
Patient-centered care is gaining traction at the same time its counterpart, value-based care, is becoming a fundamental cog in the healthcare industry.
Healthcare systems can boost the quality of care they provide by leaning in on the patient-centered care model, and improving language access to their limited-English-speaking patients. Improving language support for these patients not only increases patient satisfaction, but can create more favorable health outcomes.
Patients at the center of the decision-making process are happier with their care, and with the combination of improved language access and value-based care principles, receive better medical treatment.
Christina Cordero is a Project Director in the Department of Standards and Survey Methods, Division of Healthcare Quality Evaluation at The Joint Commission.
