The In Full Health Learning and Action Community to Advance Equitable Health Innovation initiative provides health industry stakeholders with opportunities to prioritize investments in health innovations developed by, with or for people in marginalized communities, according to a March 7 press release.   

The network grants access to experts, resources and opportunities for its members to share lessons learned and identify challenges and opportunities for collective action and policy change.

The initiative strives to help developers, funders and purchasers identify which health innovation products include marginalized communities in the design, development, testing and evaluation process.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
