Health diversity, equity, and inclusivity

Statista overview report on healthcare diversity, equity, and inclusivity in the United States

Health diversity, equity, and inclusivity

Despite progress, not all Americans have a fair and just opportunity to attain their highest level of health. Recent data on life expectancy, chronic illnesses, and rates of mental health conditions reveal how social demographics continue to impact an individual’s health in the United States.

In this report, the data will examine the underlying causes of health disparities, how different populations are affected, and why an egalitarian approach to improvement fails to level the playing field. The benefits of a diverse and inclusive workforce will be discussed, as well as how the dynamics of the country's social and political landscape can shift healthcare access and health outcomes.
